A blue between the S/O and the Skipper? Whatever happened to " if I want your fu#$ing advice I will ask for it"? So famously stated in years gone by. Obviously the G/Y generation have taken their attitude to the flight deck. You would have to pity the F/O probably trying to stop the other two belting each other.If indeed lack of discipline is starting to show in the office, then its time something is done about it, one ship, one Captain, and unless you need to utter those words "Captain you must listen to me" its probably a good idea to speak to the F/O first and quietly voice your concerns, he will either support you or go with the Skipper, either way no harm done. As probably the oldest S/O QF ever had (due to the little altercation in 89) there was many a time I had to bite my tongue, but in all fairness most of the Skippers asked my opinion, ( probably due to the fact that I was old enough to be their father and possibly had a clue). Anyway, who is releasing this stuff?
