So who is the Commander if the pilot is under supervision?

Anymore facts, or are we still going on opinions?
Since this has turned into the SilsoeSid thread of guesses and inability to read, another reminder.
None of those terms/titles would have been 'flying around in that cockpit', since they are all UK terms and generally unused down here. There was a pilot who signed for the flight, and his CP who was along for the ride in an advisory capacity which turned in to a decision to complete part of the flight on Mercy Flight grounds.
No more facts than those that SS has been applying to his suppositions, but a lot more understanding of how the system works holding both NZ, Australian and UK licences upon which to base my posts. And a lot less inflammatory criticism of the pilot based on 'wotifs'
