WRONG ! Someone else would have seen a beacon and told the captain. If
he the captain was bent on suicide and continued to move the ship
toward the beacon, the second in command would most likely be
courageous enough to take control. I'm sure the second or third in
command is allowed to take control when superiors are grossly out of
their mind.Most captains respond and avoid *warning beacons. If not-
perhaps you can give us a specific example when one didn't respond.
