That's a very interesting report. Thanks Centaurus for highlighting it!

I find it interesting that there's such an emphasis on how first officers might take control from captains.

In this case the first officer seemed, outwardly, quite vague about the danger that the aircraft was in. There was no obvious need for the first officer to take control from the Captain - at least, unless the Captain ignored a direct and blunt suggestion! But this suggestion never occurred.

I tend to wonder in this kind of report why the crew seemed so reluctant to call a spade, a spade. What's in the human dynamic that prevented it?
