Promoting Bridge officer to captain

Hey everyone, This is an idea I came up with and thought i'd share it to see what you guys think,
The Idea:
When you get to the rank of Admiral(50) you can then promote a bridge officer to Captain and assign that officer to take command of one of your unused ships that you own, When the bridge officer takes command of the ship it will fly around with you in Reg space and norm space and Assist you in combat, the bridge officers ships will receive stock level weapons depending on the tier of your ship that you assign them to. if their ship dies in combat it will come back to you when you respawn or if you are out of combat for 30 seconds
With this idea you can truly get the fleet combat experience,
Post if you think this is a good idea, and I really think this could be a great addition to STO.

You could also have random distress calls from your captain where you engage in a patrol style instance to assist them in some mission they are doing.
I think there is a lot that could be done here, and it would make you feel more like an admiral.
Yeah, this idea has been around forever. Not to say it isn't a GREAT idea, but I don't think it'll happen. In fact I'm pretty sure the Admiralty system (which is really very good in it's own right) was their attempt to satisfy the desire to use all the ships you own in some way.
Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

Support 90 degree arc limitation on BFaW! Save our ships from looking like flying disco balls of dumb!
Really wish you could do this, and they'd replace that almost useless skill where you hit 50% and you can call in help with you can at will once say every 5-10 minutes call in your own fleet of ships captained by BOFFs you've promoted and you can feel like an actual admiral.

not the first time this idea was had or posted here.. was a good idea then still is... wont happen
What we got out of this idea is the Admiralty System. So that went down a different path, heh.
But yeah, having a call-in ability is still a great idea.
So many Officers, too few crewmen and NCOs. The payroll costs must be astronomical at StarFleet Finance.

Its a good idea (poor Tovan ahah), everyone wants it, but it's not going to happen xD !
Tovan Khev and Sela go into a cave to fight to the death. Who comes out? Nobody! We rigged it to blow!
