Really!!!!!!!! Do us all a favour and tell us where this is going on so that we're better informed as to who we should travel with.
The Heads of Flights Ops I know of want to be able to sleep at night and not have to worry about substandard Captains ruining their day by doing something dumb and trying maim the customers. Very doubtful they'd sanction upgrading rather than by passing somebody.
