I've spent a lot of my career riding online and offline jumpseats. I'll speak up when, and only when, I have a concern about the safe conclusion of the flight. Otherwise, I'll say thanks for the ride and maybe ask the Captain a question or two after we are safely at the gate if something very (make that VERY, VERY) significantly gave me pause. Online or offline, I'd have to be very concerned about an immediate chance of death, dismemberment, or violation to the working crew before I felt it appropriate to call a go-around from the jumpseat.

We had a 747 guy practically try to crawl out the escape hatch during the 'flare'...

400' agl, engines still at idle, full dot high on GS, ultimately landed outside TDZ. First time I've been scared in the jumpseat.
