He just has a different out look on the rules or shall we say lack of them about giving a pax a pole.
In alot of cases the flying of the aircraft isn't the hard bit straight and level.
Its the navigating and talking on the RT which is the hard bit.
Most would not complain about the pax doing the Navigating and the PIC checking it. All merry hell lets loose when its suggested that the pax does the easy bit flying the plane while the PIC does the technical bit working out where they are and where they are going.
