That's what happens when the Boss is a want-a-be pilot. He says "I'll be the co-pilot" then he realizes its not so much fun flying hours on end in a greenhouse and then he gets up and goes to sit in the back! Then he never offers to sit up front again!
Thats how it happened to me at least!!!
But at 21 years old and building PIC Jet time, I wasn't complaining to much!
