It's not people like you swedflyer who worry me. In fact, I think that flying with someone like yourself would be a very pleasant experience, a captain could ask for no better support in the cockpit "partnership".

The people who do worry me are the VERY SMALL NUMBER who avoid command because their own self analysis indicates an inability to command. The recent Continental Captain's death is a gentle reminder to ALL First Officers that due to circumstance, they might be called upon to be the aircraft Commander at a moment's notice.
