Definitely the secret fantasy category for me, but I definitely don't want
the opportunity to come at the expense of another pilot as in this case.

Matt
Just how I feel. I want to land it.

I believe that an ATP (such as FO, who was acting as PIC in this
instance) can give instruction in air carrier operations - and
therefore, the FO could sign his log book as dual received.

IIRC, the ATP must be rated in the -757 to be able to sign off instruction.
The -182 wouldn't need a sign-off if he is MEL rated. Logging SIC time is
not the same as acting as SIC.

I would damn sure log it, whether the FAA allowed it, or not!

What if the FAA does not allow it? He does not get to count it towards a
rating in jet transport.

Darn! I'll bet that really breaks him up! g I mean, who cares? THe only
thing that would matter for, is if he is really going for that rating!
Think that will ever be likely for the average GA pilot? ;-)

What a thrill, but of course, in a tragic situation. Still a tale to tell.
It isn't as if he caused the death. 'Tis a good thing that he was aboard.

Just resist the temptation to pop your head into the cockpit and say:

"Good Luck, we're all counting on you..."

I'll try my best to resist, should I ever be in that place! g

Have you ever been kicked? In the head? By an iron boot?

My CFI and CFII (the same person) said that line I think in EVERY one of
my 300+ approaches, landings and of course as part of the after landing
checklist. I now use it many times a day.

Certainly mine...

Do you think Stephen Brown could petition the FAA
Commish to allow him to log the time as SIC?

Or will the FAA take action against him for operating an aircraft for which
he is not properly rated?
