That's a whole heap of S-76 Co-Pilot hours flown on the North Sea by some people invalid then. I think that the regulations are obviously different in the USA where you don't need a type rating.
So, how does a co pilot flying an S-76 or a Bell 412 in the GOM, not under instruction log their flight hours and duty time. If you can't log the flight hours, then there must be no duty time? Sounds like I may have found a way to reduce my contract costs, require 2 pilots, only pay for the one that counts.
