Based on this quote alone -this buffoon should resign-NOW !
This is a total load of horse****e and EVERYONE who flies (pax included) would know that this has been going on for at least 18 months.
I personally have written numerous ICAN's on it, result =ZIP.
I for one and sick and tied of EVERY trip on a 744 having to put up with constant jibes, smart arse cynisism, angst etc fro pax who are OVER IT.I cannot tell you how many pax have walked as a result of this .....because it would be in the 100's!!!
CSS's and CSM's are the ones who should be paid a IFE "breakdown allowance" 'cause they are the poor bunnies who predominately have to put up with the abuse.
Solution.........Scrap the whole system on the 744 and start again.
Rockwell Collins should then be hung out to dry.
But someone needs to tell David COCKs something his daddy would of told him when he was a nipper.
"YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR"
