the quote you have of me above is quoting another poster that said the comments on this thread are asinine and I agree but none of the BS came from United pilots.
Like I have said before, if you want to have a productive conversation let’s have one. But coming on here asking when the fire sale will be so they can 787s and saying United is going to plant one and calling the crew names is out of line.

The only pilots who should have an authoritive opinion here are UAL pilots: Since they bave access to their manuals. I don't work for United but for another legacy. Our FOM is quite clear that charters are operated under 121. Letting passengers into the flight deck after pushback is insane.
But, I'm not sure what UAL's manuals say.

ASAP would likely be rejected.
United’s FOM or CP carpet dance doesn’t really matter if your certificate is suspended or revoked by the FAA, and if it goes public they will likely be forced to take action.
FO should be ok, because they are in their seat not using a PED and the CA has final authority of flight deck door. FO opinion for or against CA decision is likely not relevant.
FO can likely ASAP they were task saturated with PF duties and trying to maintain SA of what CA was allowing, and forgot to look up point out FOM violation.

And for the phone video, certificate action AND criminal action... that's one of those FARs which has matching federal criminal law.
FIFY.
Yes. It's already public.

Better than watching a TV version there's official reports that are MUCH better sources of knowledge. I had pilots want to talk about how the NTSB and FAA 'screwed' Sully after the crash. Their source? The movie. Ridiculous converstation when there's actually 2 good books, one by Sully himself, AND an NTSB report available.

I think the Feds can take certificate action for illegal PED use, and for leaving your seat not for physiological needs.

[QUOTE=TallFlyer;3794303]Not on my airframe....
Funny you mention XJT, there's a certain picture on the interwebs of a yougn lady wearing nothing but tight orange pants in the right seat of a 145. The rumor I heard is that it was a ferry flight with a company FA riding along, and none of them were working for XJT long after that.

Supposed info posted online about that event - IDENT/DME and time on the FMC have them away. "We don't fly over that VOR that far away." Except on a charter ferry or mx ferry flight that Flightaware time and location agreed with. At first people thought that, like this video, it was fake. But the gear handle was up, slow and high speed buffet tape on the airspeed indicator. :-0 She looks topless...but the reflection in the ND shows that she's still holding her bra across her chest.
