A question about flying and navigating (quoting from the rules): “In an emergency, anyone can fly and anyone can navigate, both from either seat, but making a Move outside your assigned position requires a change in the fiction first”.
I was wondering, which change in the fiction? I’m not very clear about what, in reality, means trying to fly or navigate from the wrong seat, so I’m not sure about these changes. Any examples?

I am interpreting that as either the pilot or the navigator is incapacitated.
There are controls for flying the plane in both seats, so if something happens to the pilot, the navigator can fly and perform the Attack Run and Wheels Down moves. Likewise, the pilot could theoretically reach back and grab the map, compass, etc. to do Wayfinding if there was some need to do so.
So the fictional adjustments are just things like “I reach back and grab maps & compass”? (Maybe Tempting Fate, according to the fiction.)
Cool! Am I right if I’m supposing in some situations that will likely activate the tempt fate move?
Yes, to both of you. Just flying the plane might not be a big challenge, but doing so while trying to hold a dead or unconscious pilot up off of the controls certainly would be Tempting Fate.
