I must respectfully disagree. There are ALWAYS a minimum of 2 pilots on board (4 on overseas flights) therefore one can always be in control of the plane while the other attends to business.
Also nix on the CC permits. They're much too easy to get. I got mine in Georgia and all I had to do was be fingerprinnted and pay $35. In Tennessee all you have to do is take a 6 hour course and pass a test. Still to easy to get.
In the words of Joe Lieberman, I find this troubling. It took my husband six months to get his CC permit.
Your house sounds lovely by the way.
