Excellent. Standardisation is great. It makes it clear - no arguments. Im all for that - and as ever I abide by club rules.

Fair comment.
The problem is a 'generous interpretation' of the rules is used by a lot of low hours pilots are trying to up their P1 time....given that P1 time is important up to ATPL issue its a question of trying to cheat the system - and for the CAA purposes P1S may be counted as PIC for licence issue.
But when it comes down to it you need to log your flight time honestly and with a clear conscience.
I ensure that all my flights I log with another instructor (where he is in command) are dual (put) unless I am on a flight test (examiner) where (assuming success) I log P1S.
I agree that for club checks it makes sense for the pilot being checked to log P1S.....Im sure we all agree on that....but my question is - is that acceptable to the authority and where is it written that it is acceptable.
Ill dig up the e-mail I received back from the CAA sometime ago when I attempted to clarify the issue...
