P.S. Please vote for wishlist in official forum (LINK TO POST) for adding this feature in game by default!
P.S.S. For those of you who are not aware of this pilot attire mod, it is a natural companion for this mod! Dress your co-pilot (and pilot) in the latest fashions!
P.S.S.S. There is a high chance that in the next SimUpdate the mod may stop working correctly! Therefore, restore the file layout.json, remove mod and wait for the update. The update is likely to be released with a long delay due to encrypted files. Thank you for your understanding.

I'm having a issue with the 787 screens showing up white.

Hey, looks like your mod has a conflict with the new updated Longitude. With this mod installed the registration number on the tail goes blank on all liveries. Read the comments:

Hi Mugz
I cant see option in MCDU for see PILOT,
PILOT+ COPILOT or ONLY PILOT.
MCDU option exist only in FBW A320 DEV build (see my discord)

Am I losing my mind? I thought there was a version of this that did all the .json file editing automagically. Of was I just dreaming/hoping such a thing existed?
Regardless, the mod, once properly installed is out-fricking-standing. While I've been wanting something like this for a very long time, at first it was a bit jarring to look over and see someone where I had grown so used to seeing nothing but an empty chair (especially while in VR, which is the only way I fly now), I got over that quickly. But I still feel a bit awkward when moving my arms in the real world in such a manner that if everything, including my arms, the aircraft, and the copilot were real would probably be considered a bit forward and rude, if you see where I'm going with that. Probably a side effect (and ultimately an endorsement, frankly) of VR in the first place.
But if you, as a user, find it both odd, and frankly not correct in a 2-pilot required aircraft, to have nothing but an empty seat, then you should definitely get this mod. I give it my 100% endorsement, even if the installation is still somewhat cumbersome given what I thought (perhaps incorrectly) was the case.
In other words, just get this! And MS/Asobo should buy this and make it standard (if optional) for all their aircraft. I would give it 5 stars, but it seems I can't for some reason, perhaps related to the fact that I had to blow away my installation of EVERYTHING, including windows to fix a problem (including being required to rebuy the sim and all my payware addons from scratch). But that's more than enough about my personal problems.
At the risk of being repetitive, get the mod, you won't regret it.

Why doesn't it work like the Add Co-pilot to your cockpit (Standard Edition) Mod? That's much nicer!

Hi Mugz
I am solo flight enthusiasts who still like a bit of body presence in the game and I don't want to feel like a floating ghost.
Please can you add PILOT in 320 NEO?
Thanks

This is really great but why we do not see a picture of the character instead of a name in the preview?

Thank you very much. Its so much better to fly with an visible copilot.
She was a bit shy on our first flight together but I gave her some ukulele lessons to do so I am optimistic for the future.
To be serious, this was one of the features where I did not understand why they are not included anyway. Empty cabins are stupid too.

there are option for show PILOT and COPILOT in the cockpit? (in the 320 flybywire) Thank you
