I have been incapacitated in flight once, with no duals in. The pax leaned over and took control (keeping us level) until I recovered sufficiently to regain control (about 20 minutes). I could not see anything, nearly blanked out and could not think straight. Turned out to be a once only panic attack.
Now I often leave the duals in and let the pax have a feel as we go.
