Thanks MM
You are quite right to pick me up on that. This isn't the place to go into some of the mental manoeuvrings that went on with our now departed CP over the interpretation of the regs on this.
As I remember, they were still going on as he left!
The point is, I think, that most of the fam flights would be short(ish) in duration, and the person concerned would probably want to remain on the flt. deck anyway, that being the purpose of coming, in the first place.
Up to date 'local' instructions would I'm sure be explained on the day.
I too am a great supporter of the whole idea. I know I get a lot out of it when we are made most welcome at LATCC, (and other places, 'spekesoftly')
Like all things in this business at the moment, the situation is 'fluid'. Don't do no harm to ask, though, do it?
