Can the P1 also log it? I'd hope so!

Only if P1 is sole manipulator of the controls, rated for the category
and class of airplane,

Correct.

and using a view limiting device (91.109) that
would require a second crew member.

This isn't necessary for *P1* to log it. He's sole
manipulator.

That second crew member of course
would need to act as PIC. Without a view limiting device, two pilots
are not necessary.

Irrelevant as to P1's right to log.

Except that he's asking if they can both log it. Quote: "Can the P1

They can't BOTH log PIC time.
