The Purser of flight 842 was female. The Captain of the flight wanted the general declaration so he could add his signature to it. The Purser was not in a position to grab another flight attendant right at that moment to monitor the area so the gen dec could be passed through the cockpit door. The situation escalated.

A question regarding the above paragraph.

Am i right in understanding that a rule exists whereby a Flight Attendant MUST be present to monitor the area while another F/A passes something, in this case a general declaration, through the cockpit door?
