One of us has to sign the FLT plan when the CA rests, but I don't have any delusions about logging that time. Just keep the coffee pot going!

For me, it's as simple as acting as PIC vs., well, simply being the PIC.

If 2 FO's are flying and there's an ATC deviation, who's responsible?
Again, just playing devil's advocate here. I'm just an RJ driver who wouldn't half mind being at atlas...
