Faked credentials
Hi guys . . yes pilots who fake their credentials should be dealt with harshly . .they are playing with peoples lives. Big scandals in India as well recently.
So what does one do when you discover someone who has knowingly faked their hours or credentials. I know of such a person, in Africa, who gained an ATP and admitted to faking his night hours. Yet he is the one being offered lucrative positions on CRJ's etc . . what to do?

..and in turkey they log FO time as PIC time...
..and in Turkey the copilots log PF ( pilot flying time ) as PIC time in their logbook and claim this is legal and in accordance of the company and Turkish DGCA.
I dont know about exact legality but it just does not sound right to log PIC hours when in fact you are a copilot..
==> so when a copilot has 4500 hours total time, 4000 as Copilot on say B737 and does an upgrade to be Captain, his logbook already pretends he has 2000 PIC time on B737 and he qualifies for selection as DECDR with Turkish Airlines.
also he is in advantage for all other airlines over the honest pilot who logs only real PIC time as PIC...

The Turkish Co-Pilots log P1 hours for the ATPL release, but under DGCA rules they must have 5 yrs post CPL and 4500 TT on multi crew aircraft before being upgraded. Also, the situation is black and white as the log book also has a column for " Commander" and even if logged as PI in the Co_pilot logbook, the " Commanders Name" is present so it is obvious that it is not actually PIC time, the " Commander" has to sign off the entries.
This is a much better system than the guy who has 1500 P1 all on C150 being shown as part of his/ her total time, which is complete nonsense.
To make DEC with THY you will need a lot more than 2000hrs actual PIC, lets start around 6000 hrs as a ball park.
