No to single pilot flights

no step was made, for now, to the project to authorize long-distance commercial flights with a single pilot during some stages of flight.

The project to allow commercial flights to operate with a single pilot for himñO 2027 has been the subject of discussionón and debate in the aviation industryón for severalños.

Detractors argue that the presence of two pilots in the cockpit helps ensure that human errors are detected and corrected., and that the reductionón costs must not jeopardize flight safety.

EASA says no

Despite this, some países and aerosolíairlines have begun experimenting with single-pilot commercial flights on specific routes.ífics and under certain conditions. For instance, in Europe, the research programón Single Pilot Operations en Remote and Challenge Environment (IN SPORTS) Eastá investigating the feasibility of commercial single-pilot flights on remote and challenging routes.
