Do you have a reference or link to this? You're getting my hopes up that someone is finally going to do something about this problem.

Most of the time, simply some outside or supervisory attention causes that pilot to change his behavior in the cockpit for purely practical considerations--I don't want to deal with the company on my days off and I don't want to lose a $200k+/yr income for jerkish behavior that I can at least pretend to correct. I heard that one airline calls in a captain when he gets 25 FOs avoiding him and say, "there are a lot a guys avoiding flying with you. Are you having any medical, mental or personal issues in play? If so we'd like to give you some time off to resolve these issues. Let us know in the next couple of weeks if you want some time off. Our only concern is your welfare and we're just here to help." Non confrontational but crystal clear: we know you're a jerk and there's a bumpy road ahead if you don't fix it. I heard that this often fixes the problem without time off or further discussion.
