“Safety pilot” is the PIC?
What of an evaluator pilot. . .doesn’t he perform safety duties?
Just asking. . . .as there is, as far as I know, no “Safety Pilot” time you can log.
I don't know much about "evaluator pilot's." I'm not sure what you mean. If you get a check ride for a new rating, currency, biennial, whatever, you're likely to spend sometime under a hood and obviously cannot be PIC then. My understanding, and it's just that, is that if you go up with an instructor in the right seat, he's the PIC the whole time.
