ok heres the deal with hour logging. im doing my FAA CPL/ME/IR with a different school. 2 people can log time in the plane provided both pilots are wearing IFR hoods. one logs P1 time whilst the other logs safety pilot time. switch half way through the PICs and do the same again....i think thats the deal anyway. thats what our time builders do!
You are off here!!!

Under FAA, the PIC and the safety pilot can log flight time IF ONE wears the IFR hood, NOT BOTH!!!

The whole point of having a safety pilot is to have him look outside.

As for JAA licenses (I have both, FAA and JAA), your hours logged as safety pilot under FAA

WILL

NOT

COUNT

towards your European license!!!

I can't believe how people just go out throwing money at something without even knowing the rules!
