Logging Hour In A Heli Not Endorsed On...

[vortex]

I believe TC has an opinion on this subject..The only reason I say that is our TC inspector went to great lengths explaining that all the 214 co-pilots that were not endorsed on type, could not log any of the time..co-pilot or dual..no endorsement - no log book entry. I don't know if this was his opinion or a TC rule. I don't mean to rain on your log book I'm just passing on what I witnessed, its still a very valuable experience no matter what.

The 61 is a two crew machine so you are essential to the flight. Log every minute. As for the heli-logging 214, if you are essential to the operation, other than crunching numbers on a calculator, it should be loggable time. Many folks have gone to Helijet with "enough multi time" logged on the 214. Times do change as do TC inspectors with differing opinions.

[Ryan]

Looks like we've secured a spot in the Shell Aerocentre for the night. Look forward to meeting ya. :up:

[twinstar_ca]

sounds cool.. is that eta 1815 local?? it's usually dark here by then....

[Ryan]

Yeah it's local. Looks like I might be getting some night experience as well haha.

 

Heard yesterday that the start date has been pushed back a day or two as the machine isn't quite ready yet. Gonna be outta here on the 29th at the earliest.

[twinstar_ca]

so that makes YQR on the 30th then... just as well.. we're socked in pretty good in fog this aft and fx up to a cm of the white stuff...

 

let me know when your depart is confirmed...

[Cole]

What time do you leave Vic, Give me a call, Check your PM's. I will swing by anyway but if you are here I would like to meet you.

 

Well i guess if I drive by helijet and there is a 61 sitting there that you are still here.

Ya know Ryan, just keep track and log that 61 time in another column of your log book and gain the experience that it brings. No one is going to care if you have it, probably won't get you a job anywhere, but you will still have something a lot of guys don't, me included, even after 28 years....

 

Great opportunity, count your blessings and enjoy!! :up: :up: :up:
