A pilot in command may not let someone without a valid private pilot certificate and medical certificate touch the controls if the pilot knows or should know that person is trying to set a record or attempt a stunt or competition feat. The FAA must revoke a pilot's certificate if the pilot lets this happen. "Pilot in command" has the meaning given in FAA regulations.

(a) Prohibition. A pilot in command may not let a person handle an aircraft's controls if that person lacks both (1) a valid private pilot certificate issued under 14 C.F.R. part 61, and (2) the right medical certificate issued under 14 C.F.R. part 67, when the pilot knows or should know the person is trying to set a record or attempt an aeronautical competition or feat, as the FAA defines those terms. (b) Revocation of Airmen Certificates. The FAA must issue an order revoking a pilot's airman certificate if it finds that, while acting as pilot in command, the pilot let another person handle the aircraft's controls in violation of (a). (c) Pilot in Command Defined. "Pilot in command" here has the meaning given in section 1.1 of title 14, Code of Federal Regulations.
