FS2Crew Automated Pilot possible?

In FS2Crew you can have the FO automate most of the tasks, but would be great if we can choose to play as FO or PF. If you choose to be a FO then FS2Crew will automatically take over as the PF and do everything the pilot is suppose to.

Would love to see this feature being incorporated into future FS2Crew addons. Where you can have the pilot flying automatically carry out the tasks and you can take the role of the FO instead. This would make it great for takeof and landing roles where you can focus your attention on watching the takeoff and landing as a passenger. 

It's almost impossible to watch your takeoff and landing in real time since you as the pilot is doing everything, even playing the role as an FO if not using FS2Crew. 

Is something like this possible?

Why don’t you ask them directly?

The real old timers will know that, with the original FS2Crew that was released for the PMDG 737NG for FS2004, the F/O could perform the take off!   With the caveat that "he is still working on his runway steering" (you had to steer with your rudder pedals, but he would take off, climb to 400 AGL and engage CMD A).

In practice it was quite messy 😄

All it was really doing was setting a higher than normal T/O trim - the aircraft would "rotate" on it's own. Then at 400AGL, the script would have the AP engage.

But it was absolutely unique at the time and good fun.
