F.O. 's are proffessionals.I sit in the left seat now and easily remember the days in the right. The captain and the F.O. are a team. Like a Dr. And a Nurse.....like a Fire captain and his firefighters. Like a manager of a bank and the assistant manager. All important for performance and safety. If someone feels like they are not a proffesional in the right seat they should get out. Because when they go to the left seat you will not know how to treat your F.O. with integrity, proffesionalism and as part of the team.

I also have to agree that right seat time in the sim is not as good experience as flying the line...even in a 13 single op or instruction. the airlines do the sim training when you get hired. why not go out and fly for a jump op, scenic tour, 135 single op, instruction etc. Learn how to make go no go decisions, learn to really fly.

Just my .02cents
