Hmm... If the commercial pilot doesn't have his certficate in his personal
possession, he can't be PIC.

There's another thing to violate him on. He might also be drunk as a skunk,
passed out on the back seat while the less experienced pilot flying in the
front seat makes a mistake which would then be charged to the drunken sot in
the rear.
