Flight instruction rules.
Can’t give flight instruction unless aircraft is equipped with:

No person may operate an aircraft in simulated instrument flight unless:
Aircraft has two pilot stations and one pilot station is occupied by a safety pilot who holds a current license.
Aircraft is equipped with fully functionally dual controls or pitch, roll, yaw engine power controls that can be operated from each pilot station.
And safety pilot has adequate vision forward and around or a competent observer to adequately supplement the vision of the safety pilot.
A person may operated an aircraft in simulated IF that doesn’t have fully functionally dual controls if:
The flight is outside controlled airspace and the means of simulating IF can be rapidly removed by PIC.
No person may operate an aircraft an an aerodrome unless:
