B727 FO REPORTS DISSENSION IN THE COCKPIT AND HIS ATTEMPT TO MAKE A CROSSING RESTRICTION AT 9000 FEET. RESULT; 9500 FEET AT 330 KNOTS.

Narrative

WE WERE FLYING THE ARR. WE WERE INSTRUCTED TO CROSS XXX AT 9000 FT MSL AND 250 KIAS. I WAS THE FO AND PF. DURING THE DSCNT I NOTICED THAT WE WERE HIGH AND FAST AND TO COMPLICATE PROBS HAD A HIGHER THAN NORMAL GND SPD DUE TO A STRONG TAILWIND. I HAD MY GPS SET TO MONITOR THE INTXN AS I DSNDED. AS I DSNDED; THE CAPT; WHO IS NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE GNS-XLS FMS; KEPT CHANGING THE DISPLAY ON MY GPS UNIT FROM THE INTXN TO ZZZ. HE KEPT WANTING TO SEE WHERE THE ARPT WAS. I TOLD HIM TO STOP AND THAT I WAS USING THE INFO TO MONITOR OUR DSCNT. HE JUST BLEW ME OFF. I TOLD HIM AGAIN AND HE TOLD ME DON'T WORRY; WE HAVE PLENTY OF ROOM. I THEN BEGAN USING RAW DATA FROM THE NAV RADIOS AND HSI TO MONITOR OUR DSCNT. WE WERE STILL HIGH AND FAST. I REACHED OVER AND DEPLOYED THE SPD BRAKES TO FULL. THE CAPT SAID THOSE JUST WASTE GAS AND STOWED THEM. AT WHICH POINT I INCREASED THE DSCNT RATE TO TRY AND GET DOWN WITH TIME TO LEVEL AND BLEED OFF SPD. THE FE ALSO WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE XING RESTR AND POINTED IT OUT TO MYSELF AND TO THE CAPT. DURING MY ATTEMPT TO CROSS XXX AT 9000 FT I WAS DISTR WITH THE FE WARNING ME AND THE CAPT ABOUT THE RESTRS AND THE GAMES THE CAPT SEEMED TO BE PLAYING WITH THE SPD BRAKES AND GPS. I ENDED UP MISSING THE SPD REDUCTION 10000 FT AND MISSED XXX AT 9000 FT BY AT LEAST 500 FT AND CROSSED IT IN EXCESS OF 330 KIAS. I WAS QUITE FRUSTRATED WITH THIS CAPT AFTER THE TRIP AND HIS ENTIRE ATTITUDE DURING THE WHOLE DAY. HE SEEMED BEHIND THE PLANE AND ARROGANT THE ENTIRE TRIP AND PUSHED ALMOST ALL THE WORK ONTO ME; FROM PROGRAMMING MY GPS AND HIS FMS; DOING MOST OF THE NAV; AND ALL OF THE COCKPIT PAPERWORK FOR THE TRIP. THE FE ALSO HAD TO REMIND HIM TO SIGN THE WT AND BAL AND ACFT LOGBOOK. I HAVE HAD PROBS WITH THIS CAPT AS HAVE OTHER CAPTS WHO FLEW WITH HIM AS A R SEAT QUALIFIED CAPT. THE CAPT; IN NEARING 60 AND SOME DAYS; SEEMS COMPLETELY OUT OF IT AND BEHIND THE PLANE. I AM NOT SURE WHAT MORE I COULD HAVE DONE ON THE FLT OTHER THAN TO TELL HIM 'YOUR CTLS' AND LET HIM FLY THE ARR SINCE HE WANTED TO MICRO-MANAGE THE COCKPIT.
