It is designed to offer two facilities 1. SAFETY: in that if the pilot suffers incapacitation the passenger at least has some knowledge of how to fly the aircraft, summon help, and land at an airport. 2. Act as a helping hand when the pilot is busy, perhaps with basic flying, keep up the paperwork, and at least be aware of what is going on.
