FAA rules: Aviators-in-training can’t log safety-pilot time for IFR practice FAA regulations limit how time may be logged during instrument training: an aviator in training may not act as a safety pilot in a way that allows logging that time for IFR practice. The rule reshapes how instructors structure IFR training credit and safety-pilot roles within approved curricula.
