FAA Instrument Time

When I did my FAA Instrument Rating and the FAA IR Check Ride ALL my flying was PIC.

As a JAA Flying Instructor I queried this and was shown in the FAA FAR/AIM that as I was a qualified pilot, I was the pilot in command. This EVEN included the IR Check Ride as I also queried this with the FAA examiner.

I would agree that in JAA states you would log this as Pu/t. And the Instructor would log the PIC as the Student, is undergoing training for a rating/licence.

I cant comment about the FAA CPL but am assuming it is the same.......
