wongsuzie,
There was one time where we had a total of 80pax to PEK, i thought this would be a great opportunity to have CC in the cockpit for TO and Lndg. I told the ISM to see if anyone would be interested in sitting on the J/S, she said she would ask around and let me know. She came back and said that no one was interested. The next day I see two of the junior crew having lunch. I join them, and as we chatted, they started asking me about flying and how the view is from the cockpit. With a surprised look I told them that I had asked the ISM to ask the crew about J/S. They replied that the ISM had said nothing and they would have jumped at the opportunity. It was obvious that the ISM was playing lip service. Needless to say the very next day I confronted the ISM, and the two were in J/S for TO and Lndg.
I don't invite CC to the cockpit so they can observe our operation. We have the best seat in the house, and I invite them cause on a beautiful day the view is absolutely magical.
