would YOU give ME a jumpseat
Hello all. I am a european national, born and brought up there. However, my great grandfather was arab and I hence maintain an arab name and appearance, though normally mistaken for other races eg south american, italian, pacific islander!!
As with most decent people of all nationalities and races, I abhor all terrorism, especially in our environment.I trained in the US and have an FAA ATPL with type ratings and have been a captain with a major european airline for 8 years. I have always had great cooperation when jumpseating in the US, but now wonder in the light of current events what response I would get with my name requesting a "jump" either in the cockpit OR cabin seat only.
Your honest opinions appreciated. Regards to all in difficult times.
