Oh no, I'm quite sure what he's saying. He's not funny, and he's made multiple posts in this thread indicating he doesn't give a crap about what his FO thinks, that he will do what he wants, "find a new trip", etc.

He, intentionally or not, is exhibiting the EXACT behavior that leads to incidents like this. That is the point that several of us are making. Communication issues like this don't just magically happen. They happen because guys like this would rather make a point or troll the FO rather than be a safe crew member.

I've had the displeasure of flying with a few guys like this, and the sooner these guys are put out to pasture, the better.
