I would imagine it would be airline specific, no doubt there’s a checklist somewhere that covers this, like the “after death checklist” or something. I would imagine though, that the co-pilot takes command. You also may or may not be able to remove the pilot from his seat safely (if thats where he died). I suppose they should declare an emergency and get routing to the nearest airport that can handle the type of aircraft they’re on. Cant land an A380 at Teterboro after all…. As for believing that everything you say is true about this matter…well….we really have NO idea if your claimed professions is in fact really your profession. So…… we’ll probably take that with a grain of salt too.
