Thanks for the info.
It seems to be an exact copy of the JARs until you get to the testing part including the definition of flight time.
The most important part relevant to this discussion is note 4 on the last page.
So I think that with a JAR format, I will make a note "SPIC, aircraft checkout" in the remarks column and the time will go in the P1 column. With the old format, SPIC will go in the function column.
After all if there is no student, how can there be an instructor??
Remember that it is nice to log what you like. However you will eventually come across an instructor or examiner who will not sign the entry if it is not to their liking. A very big problem if it is at your renewal and you miss the deadline because some of the time was disallowed.
