In an emergency, you can fly with one. But it's better with two, and you
really only need one person who can follow instructions. It a question of
needing more than two hands for certain procedures.



Okay, I call bull**** here...

MX, how the f**k can you possibly know a 747 can be flown single
pilot?? And don't say "because I do it all the time on sims"... The
gear handle is on the F/O's side, and the left seater would need
orangutan arms to reach it I think. The 747-400 requires 2 pilots for
a reason... Besides the fact it's on the type certificate... As far as
using autoland a sim pilot (or GA pilot for that matter) would have no
idea how to load and arm the approach. That argument doesn't even
begin to make sense.
