Ameriflight Petitions FAA for SIC Exemption
Cargo operator Ameriflight has petitioned the FAA to allow pilots to log time while flying as SIC in operations where one pilot is required. The plan would help pilots gain the experience flying in the right seat of smaller aircraft (such as the Swearingen Metro, a type Ameriflight operates) so they can build experience and get a job flying airliners.
