A little of regulation: "Comander pilot (highest rank on the plane) is the responsible for the aircraft/flight operation during the flight time, manipulate or not the flight contolls." So, no mather who is flying (controlling the yoke/side stik), the responsibility allways will be on the captain...

Great video. Really professional and informative. Some military pilots who go into commercial flying find it difficult to flatten the cockpit gradient. They are used to being in complete control all of the time. In the past, there have been times where a steep cp gradient in some cultures caused bullying behaviour and unfortunately fatal accidents.

Summary: Captain, first officer, and second officer are only company terms for pay. They were borrowed from maritime industry to give a feeling of reliability to passengers. Regulations use the term "pilot in command", who has responsibly and authority for safe operation, and "second in command" who is a fully qualified pilot but without final authority. PIC and SIC do not change during a normal short haul flight, they would only change if the PIC was incapacitated or possibly on an extended long haul while the original PIC is resting. During operation there is a pilot flying and pilot monitoring, this only describes the job a pilot is performing at a single moment, this can change many times during a single flight and is simple agreement between pilots.

I've noticed that when the captain makes his welcome and greeting to the passengers he will usually say 'First Officer John Smith will be flying us to ......' or if the captain is the pilot flying he will simply introduce the crew members. I guess it just sounds more polite and emphasises that they are a team.

great idea to clarify this rather confusing aspect. I learned something about why only the left seat pilot can steer the airplane during taxiing for certain categories! If I may add something about "the past" and the presence of the 3 acting person in the cockpit (flight engineer) I was invited there as a passenger for a take-off (golden days, this was before the tragedy of September 11...) and was rather puzzled to see that it was the flight engineer who performed the task of applying thrust during the take-off phase, and not the PIC. It was a 747, and I don't know if this was specific to this airplane. The engineer seat was positioned directly behing the pilots, so he could execute the procedure.
