Interesting replies. It appears that the FE seat isn't, or wasn't, necessarily occupied by an actual Flight Engineer per se. Makes me wonder if the CAA and FAA have fairly flexible rules with the FE seat.

Slight digression but was the Caravelle a two or three flight crew aeroplane ? Given that it was in many ways a two-engined Comet, I would guess three but I can't be certain.
