I have a question about the "Asian Autopilots" at Ameriflight.

Okay, so these guys from Korea are paying to sit in the right seat, but the airplane is single-pilot only.

Fair enough, I understand the FAA exemption thing.

But... what is the guy in the right seat doing?

Is there any real CRM and two crew stuff, like multi crew flows and checklists performed together and standard callouts and divisions of responsibility?

Or is the guy in the right seat basically just sitting there and staring out the window?

I'm trying to wrap my mind around how this all works...

I assume when you're being trained, you're being trained to fly "single pilot" and basically do everything yourself.
