Actually... as far as the Fed is concerned only an ACM in the cockpit is actually an ACM. If you're in the back (and stay there), you're a nonrev per the fed (host airline, and your airline may have different ideas).

Could be awkward if they ask you to come up, that's why I would only ever do it if INVITED to by the CA (I would never ask or presume).

If I was in a nonrev status, had a drink or two, and the fit hit the shan, the CA's emergency authority would suffice to allow me in the cockpit if urgently required.
