162 total POB made up of 155 passengers and 7 crew?
7 crew: 2 pilots, 4 cabin crew and 1 engineer?
The 155 passengers included 16 children and 1 baby?
The baby should be included in the total POB correct?
Why was an engineer on board?..this is not normal for A320 operations.
Shouldn't the engineer have been reported as a passenger verses an operating crew member?
