Default Safety pilot "flight time"

Ok, but it'll still count towards the 250 hours of "flight time", you
only need 100 of PIC.

(a) For an airplane single-engine rating. Except as provided in
paragraph (i) of this section, a person who applies for a commercial

Hmm... but then doesn't that seem kind of far fetched if you decide
before takeoff the safety pilot will be PIC, then the other person
wears the hood for .3 hours, the safety pilot can log the entire
flight, maybe 5 hours, as towards their total time? I wonder if any
examiner would question logging that much time? I could say, "hey,
wear this for a few minutes", then we both log the total time.You may be logging the entire flight as total flight time. However, the

only time that "counts" for your commercial is that time that is logged as
PIC time. In your scenario, you would log total flight time as 5 hours;
but PIC time is 0.3 hours.
