Could somebody please enlighten me, I am lost.
I was under the impression that PIC is named before T/O and stays PIC, independent of who is taking when control. Everything else would break my thinking of ICAO settings, sorry to push the issue.
I also remember when preparing for FAA IR that you had to present evidence for a certain number of hours x-country, where the definition is given by direct line between departure and destination in extend of (I think it was) 50 nauticals. I had some discussion with the FI and got confirmed that local flights and real flight distance are irrelevant, so it is important for such case to log according to rules.
From all this I would log flight departure and arrival plus put anything like you have control in remarks, if of any importance (something like original opt 2). Did we not have a similar discussion on P2 logged hours lately?
