What are Safety Pilot Services?
Simply put: A Co-Pilot...whether the aircraft requires one or not, the benefits in having a fellow aviator up front are immense.
Need an extra set of eyes to look for traffic? Someone to work the radios, or simply scan the instruments, and follow along on your flight plan? Need a break from the stick and rudder? Heck, even an extra set of hands to push the plane back into the hangar. Safety Pilot Sevices can be any or all of these.
Logging Flight Time
Many of our Safety Pilots are here to help supplement their time building. It is the responsibility of both the aircraft owner and safety pilot to establish "ground rules" on the acting roles of each pilot for each flight.
Even when not the "acting" or "serving" as the pilot in command many flight hours can be logged concurrently either as;
1) "safety pilot time" per Far 61.51 (e) iii
2) "sole manipulator of the controls" per FAR 61.51 (e)
