Funny, I have the same goal of going to the checkride with 10 hours of
actual. But unfortunately it's scheduled for Tuesday June 1st, I only
have 8 hours, and the days I'm flying between now and the checkride
don't appear to offer much hope. I'm not flying today and the
ceilings are 1600 feet, oh well. Good luck on your ride.

I'll be taking my checkride in a few weeks and one of my goals has been
to have at least 10 hours of actual IMC before I take the ride. It's
going well; I'm at 9.1 and only 2 of those were just boring a hole in
clouds on a cross country.

I have been under the impression that I could log PIC time when under
the hood but not in actual IMC, because I am not rated. Last night,
however, I read something in the ASA oral test prep book that seemed to
imply that this was not the case.

So, assembled wizards, should I be logging PIC time in IMC? or not?
