news  So, you (a regular private pilot) go up in a 172 with a friend who is not a pilot, you let him take the controls while you very carefully supervise her, and you can't log the time PIC. That's correct, at least according to the wording of the FARs (61.51e). Whether it's what the FAA really intended is anyone's guess. Handling the robot (turning on the autopilot) apparantly counts as handling a control. Yup. Whereas a passenger does not count as a control. That distinction per se (between what is and isn't a control) is reasonable, though the corresponding distinction between the time you can and can't log is less reasonable, as you point out. --Gary
