I didn't find myself in any situation because I did my job and flew the plane (i.e. increased the power and speed to avoid a situation) when he became negligent in performing his duties as pilot flying.

If you think I disagreed at any point that maintaining an appropriate airspeed for prevailing conditions (mountain wave, in this case), you need to re-read my post. If you missed the fact that I was pointing out that YOU were (at least) as responsible as the captain for finding yourself in that situation, you need to re-read my post. If you think that I'm the ignoramus for pointing this out, you need to re-evaluate your critical thinking skills and take a long, hard look in the mirror.

I know the place he's put in and it's a very uncomfortable one to be in. You've got guys flying with super senior Captains and they're only a couple years into 121 flying or less and it's hard for them to bring up a concern. I get it all the time and they justify their actions with their years of doing it... It's hard to be the chameleon.

Which part, specifically, do you disagree with...?
(And, before you answer, take note that the OP has already posted that he did do exactly what needed doing with the thrust....)

Today's TOTD.
The guy walking around ATL wearing a sleeveless gray argyle sweater over his uniform with his epaulettes ever so slightly visible.
You, sir, are at the forefront of flight crew fashion.
