Hi All,
Can someone clarify what would qualify for an entry into the “# of IFR Appr” column?
Does it have to be IMC conditions only? If I fly a STAR and approach in VMC, would that qualify for an entry? On the other hand if I fly a STAR then cleared for the "visual", again assuming, that wouldn't qualify.
Thanks!

Re: Logging # IFR APP
A STAR is an arrival and not an approach, so it wouldn't qualify. Any IFR approach you do whether VMC or IMC can be counted as an approach to minimums or very close to it. A visual approach doesn't count either.

IFR time in your log book is what you say it is. If you fly a King Air in VMC under a IFR clearance, you are on the guages the whole time anyway, log it as IFR if you like. That IFR column is for time you are flying under an IFR clearance.
FYI; Transport doesn't give a rats a** about little details like that when you're applying for your ATPL. They just look for total, PIC and night x-country time.

It has to be "in actual or simulated instrument meteorological conditions" (assuming we're talking about the 6/6/6 rule).FL7377 wrote:IFR time in your log book is what you say it is.
