"[Captain] was of bossy nature, firm, dominant and overbearing. He had below average intelligence. He tends to have little regard for the authority. He had low mechanical comprehension with low comprehension of space relations. His level of stress tolerance was also quite inadequate."
That reminds me of a few Captains I used to fly with.

I try hard to avoid an authority gradient but it can be difficult with an F/O who’s young enough to be my child and only has a few hundred hours. I flew with one a couple of months ago who carried a notebook and kept writing down what I had said. She flew well and was very keen to learn but I doubt she would have challenged a poor decision or spoken up.
