practicality

hello to everyone! I'm just wondering why the swimming requirements is so strict? That should not be the hardest part of recruiting CC? Atleast you can swim unaided and float in the water...but not a swimmer....they should include in their requirements that you must be a good swimmer...
...come to think of it ...if the plane crash in the water everybody dies..because the impact is the same when u crash on land..unless its not yet your time to die...Have you heard an incident of a seaman survive in an open sea? very few but they only save their lives... Tair could require more than a mile swimming test but atleast with a life vest on...because thats the first thing u should do during ditching to put on your life vest and save your life first before u save others....Im just being practical with my observation...not to focus on swimming only... rather other safety training as well & passenger service...recruit CC and see their capability during interviews then if you think that they are qualified like..personality( most important because you face & serve your passenger )....then continue with the training ..then on you can see during the training if they still qualilify..conduct a series of test in safety,service & first aid then swimming must be a part of a training not a pre qualifying test...
