FCL.060 Recent experience
(b) Aeroplanes, helicopters, powered-lift, airships and sailplanes. A pilot shall not operate an aircraft in commercial air transport or carrying passengers:
- (1) as PIC or co-pilot unless he/she has carried out, in the preceding 90 days, at least 3 take-offs, approaches and landings in an aircraft of the same type or class or an FFS representing that type or class.
Maybe it does not say ‘sole manipulator’ due to the fact that some multi pilot types require both pilots on the controls, the handling pilot does the flying bit whilst the non handler does the engines. Stretching the OP a little I know but maybe this is the reason for the regulation being a little grey.
