I don't see 61.3 (e) (1) requiring two pilots in the case where a non-rated
person (or pilot) happens to be manipulating the controls.

The only pilot that is *required* is the one who is acting as PIC.


Well, there's no such requirment for a hood either - the only required pilot is
the PIC. As long as the PIC can see out, you can have a trained hamster under
the hood manipulating the controls.
