Response would depend on whether the RH seater was a
200hr wonderkid of magenta line aviation ancestry or an
experienced senior First Officer (with a tangential line in
between the two extremes catering to those in between).
The F/O replied that as it was his leg he should be the one
to make any decision to divert and in his opinion there was
no need to divert so early until a closer to the storm front.
So it was HIS leg huh? HIS! Didn't know it'd become his private
property. He sounds to me like a cocky little bugger of the latest
breed. A senior FO would not've reacted so.
