This is just an observation based on many years. A lot of F/O's who openly voice your opinions go on to be very worst Captains. Most F/O's can accept they are not Captain but some get VERY frustrated. A lot of the frustrated F/O's then go on to become the exact Captains they hated. The desire to make all the calls turns them into the nightmare they so disliked.
Yup, so very true.
If First Officers desire a democracy, they had better learn to look for it elsewhere...other than the airliner flight deck.
