I haven't been able to get a straight answer on that myself. I've assumed it means PIC time. For your glider questions, I would log all the time where you are the pilot (solo or not, I presume solo until your license) as PIC time. Fill in the solo column if desired but don't expect anyone to ask for that number. Your instruction times are to be logged as DUAL and are redeemable toward a rating if applicable (glider => SEL can count glider instruction as dual toward the SEL ) "Cross Country" is a flight beyond the minimum leg distance for a Student X-C ( I think the number is 50 miles, check this in the regs.) One CFI's opinion....... ( your results may vary) :-) Ron Miller CFI-G, PP-SEL "Work on something long enough and eventually you will have two !"
