Is it wrong to include ICUS as command time in a CV?
 

Hello Pruners

Would greatly appreciate any opinions &/or factual statements that people may be able to offer on this subject.

Thank you

Best to be absolutely clear and split it up in my opinion. Remember those reading your cv can invariably see straight through any trick to beef up the numbers, can pick it a mile off! Good luck :ok:

Split it, every other application was state PIC ICUS or FO time.. ICUS goes under FO normally.

I have around 3,000 TT, about 100 - 150 ICUS, mainly from my first > 5,7 command, & also to fulfill insurance reqmts when I started out in PNG. Just seemed a little silly to list such a small amount of time separately.

Why list it at all?

I list my total time, and then my actual COMMAND time. ICUS doesn't get listed on my resume as I see it as irrelevant. You may as well list your dual hours as well.

For the purposes of stating how much command you have, leave ICUS out of it.

ICUS is good for 2 things - getting time on type required to operate as command, and getting trained/checked to line at a new company. That's it. Ohh and you can also log your CIR renewals as ICUS if you want as well.

If you are a Kiwi, you would probably log that alternate sector you were hand flying on a normal day as Command time - even though the Captain wasn't even aware you were calling it ICUS.... (and the Chief Pilot only picked it up from a logbook check.... ) :yuk:
