I wanted to thank again all of you for the various opinions given.
Just to keep you in the loop, I ended up taking the command.
I should be released on line after the completion of the upgrade course in a matter of days.
What can I say... I will try to make the best use of all the great tips given these years to me by some of the Captains I had the honor and the pleasure to fly with.
Hopefully one day I will be half as good as they are, that would be already something.
