Unhappy Pre Flight Shadow?

Having read all the information about jump-seat requests, how tangible is it to ‘shadow’ a crew during the preparation for first flight of the day.

I feel that this would give a good insight into flight planning, weather considerations above 2000ft and the walk-around checks for something a tad more substantial than a C152.

I’ll be travelling down to LHR for the Flyer conference and am curious if it would be a fruitful task in pursuing further.

Perhaps those connected inside would be able to shed some light on their own companies procedures/guidelines. (I'm flying with BA).

Thanks in advance for your respnoses,

Fra
