Certifying flight time on company plane

I was given the opportunity to log some PIC time by flying some guy that owns a water company in Manitoba. So about once a month I would be flying him from southern Ontario to Manitoba. Now this is a company plane, the owner is not a pilot there is no chief pilot, so how can I get these hours certified for both my commercial or even for my next job??? Its about 40-50 hours in the summer, and its time I don't have to pay for. Any help would be appreciated.

I would just get the owner or someone he appints as his representative to sign your logbook. Certifying times is a weirnd thing that popped up one day to try to deter someone from padding their logbook. If the owner of the plane says you flew the hours, and it;s in the Journey log, their signature is good enough to say that those times are real on his aircraft.

Of course the only reason for certifying times in your logbook is to make TC happy, because I don't believe it's an actual legal requirement. But if they see your signature and the aircraft owner's signature, they're usually satisfied.

registered owner or company director signs the log book. Also get copies of the journy log book.
