@ selfin:
that's why I wrote "basically one must hold at least a FAA PPL"! Of course there are exceptions to this rule, e.g. 61.51 (d) and (e) We're dealing with two different systems/regulations here (FAA and EASA) and two different ways to log PIC time, but let's stop it here, since it doesn't make any sense to get into an endless and pointless conversation.
