Answer:

They both require the same piloting skills and qualifications, although the captain is usually more experienced than the co-pilot. The primary difference is rank - the captain is the senior of the two, and he is accountable for the flight. The co-pilot reports to the captain and takes his orders from him.

Explanation:

Co-Pilot (Large Jet) assists captain of the aircraft (larger than 12,500 pounds at takeoff) with flight duties. Supports captain in calculating flight routes, speed, and take off and landing times to ensure aircraft meets scheduling requirements

The pilot in command (PIC) of an aircraft is the person aboard the aircraft who is ultimately responsible for its operation and safety during flight. This would be the captain in a typical two- or three-pilot aircrew, or "pilot" if there is only one certificated and qualified pilot at the controls of an aircraft.
