A cockpit for an airplane having, in a plan view, an aft direction, a central longitudinal axis parallel to the aft direction and a rear axis perpendicular to the central longitudinal axis. The cockpit as seen in the plan view comprises: a first seat having a first seating surface with a first seat rear edge passing through an intersection between the longitudinal and rear axes, the first seat being disposed within the cockpit and configured so as to allow a pilot sitting on the first seating surface to perform pre-determined primary pilot functions; and a second seat having a second seating surface with a second seat rear edge. The second seat has: an operational state, in which the second seat is disposed within the cockpit and configured so as to allow operational seating of a pilot on the second seating surface to perform pre-determined secondary pilot functions, the second seat rear edge being at an operational distance from the rear axis; and at least one non-operational state, in which the operational seating of the secondary pilot is disabled, the at least one non-operational state comprising a resting state in which the footprint of the second seat in plan view is longer in at least one dimension than the footprint of the second seat in the operational state, allowing a lying-down position of the secondary pilot.
