Mystical pilot-only-understood CRM
Me and most of my co-crew are more than aware of what CRM actually is and how it can avoid accidents.
I am aware that the KLM/Pan Am crash in Tenerife was caused by a biligerent Captain and that his crew were relectant to challenge his poor decisions.
BM crash at Kegworth was avoidable if only there was better communication between all the crew.
The AC DC-9 fire that started in a toilet and killed many onboard could have been avoided with proper communication.
The list goes on..................
SOME PILOTS are challenging us on crew buses and in galleys about our situation at the moment. I have experienced it first hand and I am not alone.
Now imagine the atmosphere between the crew that these pilots are creating every day on BA aircraft and tell me it does not constitute a safety threat?
