Key Takeaways:
- Logging instrument approaches (IAPs) requires flying all required segments from the IAF to MDA or DA/DH, and for simulated conditions or in a simulator, typically includes flying the missed approach; minimum ceiling requirements are not a strict prerequisite for logging.
- Safety pilots for simulated instrument conditions must be rated for the aircraft and instrument current (if acting as PIC), enabling both the pilot flying and the safety pilot to log flight time, though the safety pilot's logbook signature is not mandatory.
- When using an Aviation Training Device (ATD) for instrument currency, it's essential to verify its database currency or Letter of Authorization, and an instructor is not always required.
- In addition to logging an IAP, pilots should also log the corresponding actual or simulated instrument meteorological conditions.
