Sooo… you want deadheaders in the actual, when most of us have fought like hell to get cabin seats in our cbas? Hello regional management circa 2002. A job as a fed/hall monitor is clearly in your future.

Correct. I prefer to drive instead of spending hours on an airplane each month going to and from. But to each their own. How’s all the positive space commuting working out? Oh wait…

This is so dumb. If this was a pilot, same pilot could just as easily do this on their own metal either while jumpseating or while operating. This incident should have zero effect on jumpseating.

oh man YES! That’s is the answer! In fact we should also not allow mechanics to be around airplanes either, you know because that ONE guy who worked for Horizon had a joy ride before he found the smoking hole he was looking for. Also I have been getting some uncomfortable vibes from the cleaning crews lately. I think they should be required to do the job remotely. Since we are on the subject FAs, should we really be letting them in the cockpit when we need to take a leak?….NO I got the answer! A trucker style Gatorade bottle! (Be kinda sweet to just toss the full ones out the window on short final). Man I love these awesome brain storming sessions we have…..

If only slapping someone upside the head was legal….

Are you familiar with the “Tool of the Day” thread on APC? I think you’re the justification that’s needed for starting a “Tool of the Century” thread.

Appears to be a (formerly) mainline Alaska Airlines pilot.

You and your opinion do not matter whatsoever.
