Narrative:

I am a new first officer with a part 135 commuter/regional carrier. I was crewed with a captain for a 3-DAY trip. Numerous times he exercised poor judgement and a lack of cockpit resource management that at times placed the aircraft in danger. For example. 1) disregard for proper checklist usage (i.e., challenge and response). 2) errors in taxiing (i.e., wrong taxiway at dulles international). 3) failure to 'write up' discrepancies in the aircraft as they occurred. As a 'new first officer' I did the best I could to ensure that the flight operated under the carrier's operation specifications. I.e., call checklist and I performing (or ensuring) item was completed. Inform captain that he was on the wrong taxi and informing ground control. Discussed mechanical problems with maintenance at the completion of the flight, etc. In the future I will 'call in sick' if scheduled to fly with this individual again.
