Nice fantasy.........
The feds here in the states want to make it mandatory for random searches of flight crews AFTER having gone through security! It was outlined that prior to being admitted into the jetway, the ops (gate) agent would "randomly" choose a crew member to be manually frisked IN FULL VIEW of the pax (in keeping with the eyewash theme!), prior to being admitted into the jetway. I am grateful that out pilot unions put that to rest.....
Do any of you REALLY think that they would ARM us? The powers that be view us as part of the security problem, not as the solution that we COULD be!
Hell, we already HAVE control of the aircraft! It would be nice for them to make efforts toward KEEPING control........
