Mr Rocket
Perhaps you should remove said rocket from your rear. Our CREW pay, not flying pay as the front enders etc get, it is an entitlement we get for the job we do (please read previous posts !). Not for flying or fixing a plane.
Do the stewards get their pay for being able to fix an in flight tech snag, or is it for feeding pax and being able to assist pax off the plane in an emergency. Which is something most MAMS guys would do on a herc to assist the loadie in an emergency.
Not a go at anyone, just the facts.
