Jinkster,
ZERO chance.Sorry to be blunt but thats just the way it is post 9/11.
I've just come back from DEL.My girlfriend was operating cabin crew,I'm an ex-VS dsipatcher,training to be an ATCO in Mar 04.....I even knew the Capt from my VS days.Did I get up the front....no way.
SOP now states only operating crew,training Captains and CAA inspectors get to ride up the front (don't know what situation elsewhere is like).
