Questions
TCCA — asked and answered
Does Canada recognise PICUS?
Not as an EASA-style column. Canada uses a position-based model — you log the seat and role you actually occupied. Command under supervision is dealt with by specific rule (CARs § 401.11) rather than by a separate countersigned column, so EASA PICUS time does not map across unchanged.
