Thumbs up .....rogan josh

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA ! ! ! So speaks Tasmania ! ! Do they have special keyboards for the 11th digit?

Is it the "ditzy" image you have a problem with? Yeah... I guess the whole drag and affected voice and mannerisms thing does tend to grate at times in the "mans' world" of piloting. I assume - sorry, presume - that's the problem?

It's no big deal you know.

I remember one time a crewchange and this queer CSD greeted the next one who was one of his mates. They were all like "That'th jutht THOOOPER, Daaahhhling!!!" in the galley and I couldn't take it anymore in my workplace. I felt herass-ed and my stomach was turning so I threw them BOTH OFF!!!! Simple.

Anyway I don't think ditzyboy is really a boy. Says on profile "hostess".

Chill dudes......

Obie,

The topic of discussion I believe is "Jetstar cabin cleaning". So I suggest if you have nothing of importance to add, that it is you that should "go elsewhere" as you put it.

Ditzy at least works for Jetstar, so I'm sure he knows whats going on there in regard to this topic. Just because he is cabin crew does not make his opinions any less valuable than a driver's point of view.

With an attitude such as yours, I'm sure your cabin crew(that is if you do fly something with more than 19 seats) much cherish every moment they spend on duty with you. Now don't be so nasty and grow up!

I am so flattered. I am obviously making an impact on your miserable little life. May be one day Australia will accept you back

Actually the discussion is about whether or not pilots are doing cabin cleaning.
Which it appears that they are at least occasionally doing so.

I think most interested in this topic would already have an understanding of the logistics involved in turning an aircraft around, but thanks for the run down of the jetstar ops.

Obie -
By providing factual information, based on my experience I was contibuting positively toward the thread. Unlike yourself - a small man with a distinct cheesy smell.

cunninglinguist -
DJ use two doors, including one with a aerobridge all the time in SYD and MEL. The aerobridge is obviously at L1 and L2 has stairs where pax walk across the tarmac then up stairs into the terminal just by the side of the aerobridge. Dunno what JQ are going to do.

Ditzy bloke. You paint a hyped up negative picture of the operation. Maybe another forum would be more apropriate.

Obie, I got a laugh out of that one.

DM -
Negative? I thought I was being positive. I never said tech crew helped on short transits. I agreed with you about the tech crew not having time to play cleaning on a 25 minute transit. And I have never seen them with a vacuum.

How so was I being negative? I was just stating what I have witnessed happening online. If anything I thought I was being positive. I have re-read all my posts and cannot see any point where I was negative as you say.

Obie -
Rear Gunner's??? (Did you make that up?) No code, mate. Was calling you a w@nker.

Thumbs up Back to the topic

I have seen several occasions where both the Capt. and FO are in the cabin crossing belts and tidying. I would imagine, of course that they would only do this to when they have completed their checks and bizzo in the Flight Deck?

Crew are ALWAYS EXTREMELY GRATEFUL for their assistance and support & in my opinion it really adds to the whole CRM thing, which is fantastic.

It is certainly not expected of them, however the guys and girls from the Flight Deck show they "care", at the end of the day!

Thumbs up for "helping" us out.....beautiful

Love "Pants" x

i think it is good that airline pilots are helping out the cabin crew. promotes good crm and breaks down the barrier between flight crew and cabin crew. safety comes first and i wouldnt rush a preflight to help cabin crew do a job that is actually in their job decription.

Thumbs up Champion!

Absolutely right Captmicka!

I am sure Cabin Crew would NEVER expect you guys and gals (Flight Crew) to jeopardise safety and having to do your pre-flight checks in the flight deck whatsoever...
Had a Pilot tell me today...he was sorry that he couldn't get to the cabin and help out, as they were busy! A true CHAMPION I say....need I say anymore

Cool

What a wank!

Does anyone here really believe that pilots cleaning up cabin will save their airline from going down the drain??

I have to agree that the most likely reason that the new recruits want to "help out" is to "get lucky" with the FA's (Cabin crew, Female in most cases)

How about getting some of the shiny arse management to help out, and I'm not just taking about a "PR" exercise but every day.

Turn around is usually held up by baggage loading, particularly when containers are NOT used.

Good Luck,

Derek

Hmmm!...low cost carriers staffed with low standard personel. I guess they go together.

Danger Hmmmm

Some interesting posts re crew helping crew.

Where I work it's nothing to do with company influence. It's teamwork in an environment where most of the crew are pretty good mates anyway. If we have the time on turnaround we'll help the cabin crew tidy up at outports. That's the way it's been for the 10 years I've been where I am.

Anyway, it works both ways. Quite regular is the occurence that the F/A's will help put the pins and bungs in on terminating flights.

What's wrong with that?
