crewing for middle eastern airlines
"Do they fly 330/340 with two pilots or three?"
Actually its 6:
Captain:
He's in charge
First Officer:
He's next in charge
Second Officer:
The Captains sexual adviser, if I want his #%cking opinion I'll ask for it
Flight Engineer:
Useful for manipulating those big bakalite knobs on the 330/340, doing the walk around, syncing the fans, and finding cheap bars and knock shops
Navigator:
Helps navigating to the above venues, and does sailings, plotting, and other navigator stuff on big charts.
Radio Operator:
Warms the valves before the rest of the crew arrive, Talks to Bombay on HF, and operates the directional antenna during NDB approaches.
This is standard for all 330/340 flights up to 8 hours, of course we get an extra pilot for flights above 8, as well as a bunk, and an F or J class seat.
