You are looking to fight when I’m merely talking to other captains about a safety concern.
Fwiw I agree with you on both those points, they are not what is being discussed. If you want to argue with yourself have at it.
Thanks for playing.
You specifically said “clueless captains” in your original post. I simply pointed out that it’s not only captains who push. Your feelings got hurt, you took it personally and here we are.
Like you, I’m out.
On a personal note, I broach the topic of extending after my abort brief vs waiting until we are faced with the decision real time. I’m not going to detail that dialogue here but no FO I fly with will ever feel pressured to extend.
