Dear Rainboe,
I suppose it's not beyond the wit of mankind to design flaps
slats etc so that they could be seen from the cabin, or heaven forbid some kind of rear view mirror such that they could be
seen from the cockpit. I am only high mileage SLF, but I can see that as soon as you let go of the control freak image that you apparently have you might realise that those crew in the
back of the aircraft actually might prefer to contribute to safety, rather than die trying. Actually I, as many others, have
extremely acute night vision, maybe your staff do too. Do you know ? Night take-offs may not be the problem that you think they are. ie Sorry to be rude, and I am sure you will have the smart answer, just put a light on the bloody things.
Cabin crew don't see the light - there may be a problem.
I'm sorry, and I don't mean this badly, maybe you are part
of a generation which does not want to see that there may be solutions which you have not thought off.
kind regards, John
