I've sometimes wondered about this. The Greek sea planes according to the story I linked to in the OP have a co-pilot. Don't all commercial aircraft have to have a co-pilot? Or is there some size below which they don't? The risks in having only one pilot seem obvious, and I'm not sure I'd like to fly in a plane without a co-pilot.
