Division of duties on an airliner

CRM does address it in the only way that can it can be answered.
CRM addresses the social aspects of crew interaction; it does not
address the technical aspects. It is intended to reduce the number of
errors that are made because of conflicts among crew members.
However, the division of technical duties is a different issue.
Someone flies the plane. Someone adjusts the radios. Someone holds
the yoke. And so on. CRM doesn't address this, and this division of
labor predates CRM substantially. Furthermore, CRM is mostly an
American phenomenon, whereas the division of duties exists everywhere
where the aircraft are flown.
