The term 'Sir' should never be used in an aircraft - it only serves to promote 'cross-cockpit gradient' which is the antithesis of CRM.

If you know the guys you're flying with, it's usually first name terms. If the situation demands more formality, or the Captain is a senior officer, then referral to each other by crew position is more appropriate.
