All pilots,
I suggest you all read the following from You Splitter's post :
We will respect you for your attitude, professionalisum, and the drinks you buy us after work.
Come on guys, if we both do our jobs properly there is no need for pilots to query stupid things like can we really take x number of pax ?? If we couldn't we obviously would not have taken the job on.
Waco - I for one always treat aircrew with the same respect they give me. Pilots who ask me SENSIBLE questions will receive an answer to the best of my ability / knowledge. Pilots who ask ridiculous questions I have little respect for as they think we can't do our job or are taking the piss. I often think with one particular pilot he thinks I don't know/can't do something because of my age.
<We are ALL ONE TEAM now. Treat us well and you will be amazed what we can do for you.>
This needs to be emphasised more.
Secret Squirrel :
<It would take me 4 weeks to learn your job but it would take you considerably more to get qualified in mine.>
Are you implying that our job is a piece of piss and yours is so highly ranked that you are only second to god ??.
