FLYING BUDDY REQ!

Hi all. My request is simple! Require a fellow PPL holder, pref a newbie pilot to go flying with! Would like to share P1 responsibilty and cost, ie: you fly a leg P1, then I fly the return leg P1. We then pay our share of the costs accordingly!
Live in the North East! Usually fly C152's with a few hours experience in a PA28! I have no other ratings other than PPL!
Usually based at EGNT, however willing to consider most locations in North East!
Just looking to build confidence with a like minded individual who is new to this aswell!
Cheers!

With an examiner, I hope.

Probably not with an examiner i would think as the OP is recently qualified and has mostly flown the C152, they're hardly likely to have managed multiple successful tests in a PA28?? Much more likely to have been with an instructor who doesn't know how to get their students to log flight time properly .

If we're not talking about a multi-crew aircraft, so not a PA28, then the only time PICUS or P1U/S or P1/S, whatever you want to call it can be used is;
Pilot undergoing any form of flight test with a JAA or CAA Authorised Examiner....(enter holder's operating capacity as).... PICUS for successful test. Enter time in ‘P1’ column and have it certified by aircraft commander.
From LASORS, section A, Appendix 2

PS Dr Darcy, this isn't a criticism of you, but of FI's who should know better.
