maybe a silly question...
if someone offered let's say £15-20,000 to be a passenger for a half hour flight they wouldn't take them aboard (after a training session on bailing out)?
seeing as only the AEO sits in the back with possibly the crew chief there's space for 1 passenger isn't there?
i'm sure there's a few rich people out there that could be taken up and earn the trust a few quid.
