Whilst I was still flying I used to sometimes welcome SLF (especially the young keen ones, like I used to be) to the flight deck ON THE GROUND to show them the 'steering wheel' etc.
Fire axe at the ready, just in case.....
Is this still legal and OK or could you (technically) lose your job over it?
DB
Been discussed various times (SLF sub-forum, mainly) and the general consensus is "Yes, it's allowed depending on time constraints and SOP's". After all, if you are at the gate after a flight then the threat of a hijack is over.
