Apparently not. I don’t care what country it is...if someone hasn’t got enough gumption to stand up to that, I don’t want them piloting my aircraft especially if she is the commander.
As the commander, I believe she could order him from the flight deck. (anyone with actual experience care to confirm or deny this?)
No matter what, right off the bat, he should be gone. Period. Her reaction is a secondary concern to me.
“Her reaction is a secondary concern to me.”
I bet you wouldn’t say that if you were one of the passengers.
