PIC in USA the same in UK???

[lord_jakub]

Hello,

I have got my PPL in United Kingdom, but right now I am in USA getting my IR and CPL. (I come from Europe). In USA they put all hours spend on IR training with instructor on board as a PIC (Pilot In Command) so according to US rules I should put this hours as my PIC so I am a capitan. But I am not sure how do they recognize this hours in United Kingdom? Is it ok, if I put hours spent with instructor on board as my PIC, so I am a capitan? As they (in USA) tell me.
What European Aviation Law (JAR) says about that? Where should I put this time? As a dual only or also as my Pilot In Command time?

Thanks
Jakub

Any time spent with an instructor is, under JAR, considered to be dual. Time spent under training for an FAA IR cannot be counted as PIC towards the experience requirements of a JAA licence or rating.
