fear and sitingidly- The OMA simply states - Visits by passengers to the flight deck are not permitted.
It seems to me that this cannot be written in any more clear terms. If it is a passenger and it is a flight deck - the two cannot meet. Bloody simple. If you choose not to adhere to that- so be it, but the OMA states that they cannot visit- and that is that.
Ahhhh yes, there we have it, another easy going anti-establishment attitude from a collegue (ex A380..I'd bet the farm you are from Oz
).
So sure of his position
"ITS IN THE OMA!!" and yet lacking in any balanced assessment of the intent or spirit of the document, probably because he's been surrounded in his career in EK or elsewhere by trainers and collegues that are also utterly lacking any common sense either.
A quick look at the OMA does indeed back up ex A380's assertion...but his assessment also misses the key contextual point, 8.3 relates to flight procedures, clearly the aircraft, with brake set, engines shutdown, chocks in place and doors open....is no longer in flight
