If there’s a gray area, it’s in the “Definitions” chapter, which identifies pilots as: Captains, First Officers, and Instructor Pilots.
The definition of First Officer may not extend to someone who isn’t qualified to operate the aircraft:
First Officer: A Pilot who meets the applicable regulatory and contractual criteria
to hold such Status and who is designated by the Company as second in com-
mand while on duty.
But if that’s a gray area, then wouldn’t that gray area extend to anyone on property that isn’t “current” by FAA standards?
