Almost to a person every FO I’ve flown with is a great pilot and many have years of captain experience at the regionals. No question they’re qualified. I just wouldn’t want to go into San Jose CR at night in the weather with little extra gas with a probie in the right seat if I’d never been there before. Maybe my concerns are unfounded.
