OK. So it's clear. I can take another pilot, a woman, or a skinny guy
along
on my flight to becomme current to carry passengers.


That's uncalled for Travis, clearly we are talking about pilots.

OK. It may have been harshly sarcastic but why are we clearly talking about
pilots? Your thesis is built on a negative inference - the regs do not
clearly say that a non-flying, non-current pilot is a passenger, therefore,
it is acceptable for a non-current pilot to become current with another
non-current pilot on board. In fact, the regs don't define a passenger at
all. So, maybe there is no such thing. OK. More sarcasm.

I think it was a somewhat reasonable question. But you have now argued it
beyond reason.

If this is all theoretical, then quit trying to penny pinch a taxi to the
ramp to change pilots. Go out, do your three in the pattern and feel the joy
of flying. Then, let the other guy do it.

If you are fighting an FAA action, then I think you're screwed. Pick one of
the two of you to claim PIC and take your medicine. The non-PIC was just a
passenger and can be the chauffer for 60 or 90 days.
