Default CFII Loses Medical

Yes, I left out the part about throw over controls (hence the ...).
You're trying to change the subject. The fact is it would be a very
large stretch from the FARs to say a CFII can log dual while sitting in
the back of the plane.

Throw over controls...that brings up an off-topic but amusing story.
Yesterday, Margy and I were being given a ride in a friend's Seabee.
Since we were departing from the water, we had boarded through the
bow door and hence the right control yoke had been removed. After
takeoff the pilot asked if I wanted to fly. "Margy, pass Ron the
control yoke for his side." Took me a minute to figure out how to
install it, but I got it in.
