As in JUNIOR vs SENOIR Captains, First Officers, Second Officers, etc.    They are "Officers" of the airplane they are assigne as flightcrew members.   As in, in-charge.

Amazing your definitions are not in the FARs, but neither are any of them that are being used in the industry!

If you don't like the term "Flight Officer" because you've deemed it stupid, then you shouldn't like the term Captain, First Officer, Second Officer either for the same reasons!

But, you lost the arguement on logic so you resort to name calling!   Classic childish response!   Bye!
