I didn't mean to bash anybody but an FO's job is to make sure the flight is conducted safely and to intervene if necessary. I have done it on very rare occasions because it is my responsibility, not my loyalty to my captain or whoever is PF. I guess when I took over a 4 engine jet from my chief pilot and went around with him trying to land long on a wet short runway with no chance of stopping is when I realized having a job is not as important as doing your job as a pilot. I thought I was fired but he thanked me for what I did. Never let your flight you are responsible for as a crew member be compromised by letting another crewmember put it in jeopardy.
