Default Safety pilot "flight time"

"As I've said before, 61.51 (e) (1) (iii) says that the
pilot not
flying can log PIC during the time the pilot flying is under
the
hood so long as both pilots agree that the pilot flying is
acting
as PIC and the pilot not flying meets the other requirements
(certs,
ratings, etc.)"

No, it does not say that the safety pilot can log PIC, it
says that in order to log PIC, any pilot not holding a CFI
[or an ATP in airline service], must be mani[pulating the
controls.
(e) Logging pilot-in-command flight time. (1) A sport,

| recreational, private, or commercial pilot may log
| pilot-in-command time only for that flight time during
which
| that person-
|
| (i) Is the sole manipulator of the controls of an
aircraft
| for which the pilot is rated or has privileges;

| unless that aircraft has fully functioning dual
controls.
| However, instrument flight instruction may be given in a
| single-engine airplane equipped with a single,

of

| private pilot certificate with appropriate category and
| class ratings.

| (b) No person may operate a civil aircraft in simulated
| instrument flight unless-
|
| (1) The other control seat is occupied by a safety pilot
who
| possesses at least a private pilot certificate with
category
| and class ratings appropriate to the aircraft being
flown.
|
| (2) The safety pilot has adequate vision forward and to
each
| side of the aircraft, or a competent observer in the
| aircraft adequately supplements the vision of the safety
| pilot; and
|
| (3) Except in the case of lighter-than-air aircraft,
that
| aircraft is equipped with fully functioning dual
controls.
| However, simulated instrument flight may be conducted in
a
| single-engine airplane, equipped with a single,
functioning,
| throwover control wheel, in place of fixed, dual
controls of
| the elevator and ailerons, when-

| (i) The safety pilot has determined that the flight can
be

|
| (ii) The person manipulating the controls has at least a
| private pilot certificate with appropriate category and
| class ratings.
|
| (c) No person may operate a civil aircraft that is being
| used for a flight test for an airline transport pilot
| certificate or a class or type rating on that
certificate,
| or for a part 121 proficiency flight test, unless the
pilot
| seated at the controls, other than the pilot being
checked,
| is fully qualified to act as pilot in command of the
| aircraft.

| Pilot in command means the person who:
|

operation
| and safety of the flight;
|
| (2) Has been designated as pilot in command before or
during
| the flight; and
