I know that EAS flies all of their fractional aircraft with two crew members. Given that the King Air 90 and King Air 350 are single pilot aircraft, as are the Phenom 100 and 300 and the CJ...how could the right seater possibly log any of that flight time? They have a 135 certificate but the flights are conducted as a Part 91 flight, so a GOM could not require a second in command. The only way I see the right-seater being able to log the time is to get the left seat pilot to sign as Dual Given? I have a low time buddy who asked me as he is considering Air Share, but I don't see that he would gain any loggable flight time. Any insights?

Read this and let's continue the discussion. This has been an interesting topic for years.

The aircraft may be certified for single pilot operations, but are the pilots qualified for single pilot? Also, the PIC does not have to exercise the privileges of a single pilot type if he is using a second in command. Another consideration would be the insurance that EAS carries. It may not allow for the operation of single pilot operations in which case a SIC would be required for the flight operation.

The PICs are trained and type rated as single pilot. EAS operation requires the use of two crew members unless you excersise the OpsSpec which allows Autopilot in lieu of an SIC.
So.....the SIC is a required crew member when crewed.
