"Picard is an idiot ... how can a guy who grew up on a French farm (grape farm at that) speak Shakesperian English ... and that FO of his?

I'm a little thick today. What does FO mean?

Sorry, force of habit ... an FO means: First Officer. Sits in the right seat. A PIC is Pilot In Command and has the left seat.

All this changes when the FO is the PIC .... get it? :)

But in helicopters it's the other way round .. the PIC is in the right seat and the FO in the other ....

Confusing??

Me too ...
