If you are not required to be there I don't see how you can log it. It would be like if a 747 captain let you touch the controlls and you decided you wanted to put .5 747 time in your logbook. And always remeber if you have to explain any time during an interview. I woudn't think trying to tell your future employer that all your multi time came from a buddy who let you manipulate the controls. There is a lot more to being the PIC the just flying along in cruise.

Isn't the Islander certified for single crew operations? I'm sure I've seen the Loganair ambulance flying around with only one on board. If it is then you can't log it as you are not flying P2. We have a similar situation with our piston twin fleet - they are all certified for single crew ops but sometimes a customer requests two crew. Unfortunately the poor sole who was 'second' oncall during the shift has to haul his butt out of bed, do the radio, spend the rest of the night waiting around for the return trip, do the radio, go home knackered and not even able to log the hours! We can't even let the guy fly from the right seat unless he is an instructor on the type (Ops Manual requirement). Unless it's one of the old bold types we won't even swap for the positioning! (Us Wannabees have to fight for every hour!)
