Given this set of circumstances, what types of assistance would a
commercial-rated pilot be able to offer assuming she is not rated on
this type aircraft? I would guess-communications with ATC primarily.
What else?
She, as mentioned, can help run the radio. She also can read "check
lists."
The pilot knows where the various switches/levers are.
She can also call off speeds when landing.
She can also re-inflate the auto-pilot, Otto, don't forget.
