Ok I'll bite. Who are all these people I am ****ing off. Let's see how many
you can name.

The Aircraft POH and the FARs define when a second pilot is a required crew
member.
Those items have been covered in previous netgroup responses. i.e. a safety
pilot is a required crew member when the stick shaking pilot is under the
hood. Otherwise a second pilot is not required and he is a passenger.

Sorry partner, but the regs just don't say that. If they do, point it out.
The purpose of 61.57 is to outline the minimum currency required to carry
*passengers*. The discussion is about an aircraft with dual controls and two
*pilots*. And no one said he was required.


You do not need a second pilot as a required crew member for most SEL
airplanes VFR in the traffic pattern doing landings.

Period Dot. Complete.
