"QAVION,
That is one hell of an angle on that pic. Did you take that shot yourself? If so, how the hell did you get up there?"
That's secret engineers' business
No, nothing out of the ordinary, BMB... a scissor lift on the back of a large truck. One of the Logo lights was not illuminating and needed a relamp. Things like Cherry Pickers are required for some of the higher stuff, however (HF Tuner changes, fin tip static discharge wicks replacements, etc).
Digital cameras are useful tools. I never go to work without one
Cheers.

Skysista- I have always asked the same question regarding FA's having to wear stockings. I am guessing that it has to do with the health authorities. I know to work as a waitress or bar person, its law that you have to wear trousers or stockings, just trying to cover as much skin as possible.
Incentive for Removing Stiletto Heels
So what you need on the briefing card and video is a sweet young thing zipping down the slide, catching a stiletto heel and doing a backflip off the slide to a headfirst landing on the tarmac
preferably well padded for the film.
Then tell them there's no cushions when it's for real
To really get their attention, demonstrate the knee-chest posture to be used on the slide when you're wearing stilettos

Hmmmm....
RBF,
>>So what you need on the briefing card and video is a sweet young thing zipping down the slide, catching a stiletto heel (as opposed to a fire extiguisher?)
and doing a backflip off the slide to a headfirst landing on the tarmac preferably well padded for the film.<<<
I laughed my butt off reading that!!!! I'm certain it would work...
Perhaps in addition could show just how "easy" it would be trying to jump/escape from a/c wreck wearing mini-skirt, boob tube and half a ton of flammable hair spray..... honestly, the amount of girls I've seen on planes dressed like that.....
Parry, never knew there were regs about that. I wonder why waitstaff etc are required to wear those... any idea what the reason is behind that reg?
