What Do F/O's Do That Annoys You??

I recently had one try to take over the whole show. He was a bit put out when he was told he wasn't the boss.....

You weren't at the tiller of a GA flight recently were you

OK even you should see the funny side to that.

I suggest you and he/she and your CP have some tea and scones over this and get it sorted some other place than PPRUNE, but if this gets going here it will be one hell of a slag fest.

My answer is .....I dont fly with one, except when he who has about 28,000 hours more experience than me comes along for a ride.....and then I at least listen and learn!

Grab another Bundy and Coke and watch this go like a fire with kero!

They sit up the front, they touch stuff, they talk, they try to tell you what your problem is, they don't listen, they constantly sleeze on the cabin crew, they think they're god's gift to aviation.... and they're constantly living in the past reminiscing about how good things (they) were in the old days.

....Oops, just realised I'm on the wrong thread.

Take the extra sectors
Take the pick of the sectors

On the flipside I have flown with some great Skippers who sit back and enjoy let me learn and help with positive input.

occasionally, through total and sheer arse, do the greaser landings I alway used to do!!
(meaning in MY day they resulted from a combination of super intelligence, skill, touch and all-round superiority to humbly mention a few, but by no means all, of the factors involved. One wonders if such perfection will ever, again, grace this great land.)

In all fairness a couple of other F/O's around at the time had similar abilities!

And the law of averages says there had to be the odd (?) Captain occasionally - and indeed the odds were correct!
