As far as I know, such an opspec does not exist. As per FAR 135.101, two pilots are required for pax carrying IFR ops. An OpSpec exists which allows an operator to use a qualified PIC with an autopilot in lieu of an SIC. Please correct me if I am wrong!

- Does republic offer buddy passes/pass benefits to give out?

- How long is reserve/upgrade at LGA?

THANK YOU!
I had a similar job previous to rpa, they didn't question it. It was a reputable and well known 135 that had SICs just to timebuild for PIC. I had a SIC checkride there and then a PIC later on.
