I think it is time for a reality check. Read again what lambourne says about his attitude and behavior towards senior captains between the ages of sixty and sixty five.

Do any of you really think that any self respecting senior captain or any decent airline would let him continually get away with it? Maybe there are a couple of milder and meeker captains who would let his behavior pass but the vast majority of senior captains are thoroughly competent and capable people who, with flight safety in mind, would be down on him like a ton of bricks, then the word would get around. It would only be necessary for lambourne to be thrown off flights twice and he would get a 'Please Explain' letter and an interview with management, certainly in a properly run airline.

lambourne is a dreamer, he is telling us what he would like to do, (and we are rising to the bait!), the fact that he chooses to fly as an FO when he could be in command says a lot too. lambourne is in fantasy land, he is a Walter Mitty and he needs professional help.
