Is this thread for real? I can't believe this is still a thing unless you're in Asia somewhere with a 200hr FO. Sure I have taken sectors sometimes in bad wx or a landing here and there depending on the FO's experience/skill level but I never EVER considered it being a privilege giving an FO a sector..... And i definitely never expected a thank you! Join the times it is 2015 cockpits are shallow gradients now with both crews involved in the decision making process and the skipper having the final say. Pretty simple. The only thing I don't appreciate is an FO who doesn't have any respect for the captains authority and boy do they exist but thankfully not in large numbers
