I wonder if the FO went off the reservation or if that was the tone from both pilots.

perhaps the CA wanted the number to apologize for an over zealous FO. I will give benefit of doubt that was the reason requesting a number.

I kinda wondered the same. On more than one occasion I've heard something on the radio, usually ramp or ground where I knew it was the FO, and was certain the captain had to be resisting the urge to backhand the dude sitting to his right.

That was my perception, although a lot of the time when the FO is acting like a stressed out goober like that the CA is part of it too.

If the captain wasn't onboard with the FO's attitude, then the captain owns part of that anyway. They should have either told the FO to quit it or straight taken the radios away.

The other option is, like you said, the captain instigated it via the FO, in which case the captain owns most of it. The FO didn't need to be a ****, so they own that part.

It’s funny because he sounds exactly like most Envoy pilots on the radio. That lazy low toned voice that you can barely comprehend.

The FO is a hat guy. That's all I'm going to say about that.

Oh we already knew that. You could hear him removing it during the third radio call.

Everyone is telling me it was TS but they have no proof. Were you able to confirm it was TS?

Lol I’m just trying to make the best of it since I know I’ll be on this plane for the next 2-3 years.

Don’t wanna go into my first airline job hating life just because I’m on a less desirable jet. However I know commuting to reserve will be hell. I’m prepared for that. Mostly just wondering the pros/cons of being on the 145.
