I never suggested that logbooks be falsified, I suggested that you log P1(S) and fly with instructor for solo hours
The definition of 'solo flight time' in JAR-FCL 1.001 is "Flight time during which a student pilot is the
sole occupant of an aircraft." If a student pilot records as solo flight time during which an instructor is also in the aircraft (i.e. he is
not the sole occupant), how is this not falsification?
It doesn't quite work that way
It works exactly that way! Individual member states currently pick and choose the elements of the JARs that suit their national interests and either ignore or grant exemptions from those that do not. Once the new EU Regulation comes into effect, however, the option to grant exemptions will be removed and member states will be left only with the option to ignore the requirements and, no doubt, the usual suspects will do so.
