My point was,the likleyhood of some crazed taliban member charging up the aisle because the flight deck door is open is pretty slim.
Maybe my views on terminal security are naive,however that is the only place these people can be stopped,the usual approach of-did you pack your bags? is hardly high security.
Surely the cabin crew understand the need for young people who want to see the flight deck?
As mentioned earlier in this thread the word in the ear is probably the best plan and I understand tiggeriffic's conundrum,but I'm sure they can see that although rules were bent,it did not endanger an aircraft.
The biggest danger to aircraft these days are football fans,ingerlund! etc (read drunken thugs!),they would be the first to try their luck with an unlocked door.Cabin crew have my upmost respect for putting up with people like that,if I do make it in to the left seat,on those flights the door will stay firmly shut.
As for this visits on the ground only rule...who wants to look at the terminal out of the window,after all it is the view not the buttons that are interesting
