Thanks sebby

Obviously different procedures for diff airlines. I know in NZ CAA has a strong influence on procedure and they are generally as stated above.

Thanks.

Re:Safety issues.

Hi all this is my 1st post here.After reading alot of the issues that can take place I have to say it is concerning,and I do hope that the very nervous/scared flyers DO NOT read this forum!I totally appreciate that in every work situation not just yours that there are people who make the job uncomfortable.Also that it can make it difficult to confront them.

All I ask is that you DO confront these people (captains ect) If not for your own safety but us passengers onboard.If you really have to imagine that a member of your family are onboard mum,dad,sister,brother.

If that was the case wouldnt you like to think that there would be someone cc who would raise these issues to ensure the safety of themselves and the passengers?

The captain of the flight can look down on you all he/she likes,if they would like to trade places and do the real HARD work,upfront like you all do then I for one would love to see their people skills!

Be safe.

At my airline, on some of our aircraft, the door must be fully open before steps are put in place.

this is due to the fact that the steps cannot be put in place properly should the door be closed

This seems to be an unsafe practise to me, if the FA slips or trips where are they likely to land? It may be the GHA does not have the best equipment.

i think most crew are sharp enough to know if you get an evacuate command thay would rearm there doors if steps were not there and if there were, then arm and open the other side doors and use them aswell!
