Narrative:
I was first officer and PNF on a part 135 passenger charter flying from lex to opf. The captain was flying at an unusually steep climb attitude climbing through FL330. The left engine flamed out. I asked the controller for a lower altitude. We were cleared down to FL250 where a successful airstart was completed. I suggested to the captain a need to land in atl and have the engine checked out by a mechanic. The captain, who owns the aircraft and is an a&P said there was no need. The trip continued to opf uneventfully. Per the far's, we should have landed. This was my first flight with this company and this captain. If I were PIC, we would have landed.
