And how can it be P1(whatever) when sucessfully completed a flight test and not p1(whatever) after sucessfully completing a club checkout? I am sure the examiner is going to take control when the engine fails, just as the instructor may do on a club checkout flight. Prehaps there should be a new class of logging, called "P1 As flight instructor".....
Personally I don't give a toss who logs what, I do my 1 hr with a JAA instru ctor every 2 years to keep the CAA happy and will log it as dual - what the hell. Actually, thats a point...this year I did it with an Examiner, who was acting as FI. Maybe I can log it as P1(whatever)....
