Flight Crew Abbriviations
 

I recently flew on SAS (Scandanavian) and the flight deck crew were FC and FCM. What do they mean?

Thanks

Flight Captain, them i'm guessing :\

Thats what I thought but the 'FCM' got me, wasn't sure what the 'M' stood for?? any ideas??

In what context were these intials used?

'Flight Captain' and 'Flight Captain's Mate'.

Might it not be an abbreviation for a Scandie term?

Yes, but I'm still trying to work out where the OP saw or heard these initials..doesn't sound like the sort of thing that's said on the PA, as in:

"Good afternoon this is FC Bloggs, with me on the flightdeck is FCM Biggles".......:confused:

Can you tell us more REF, then we might be able to help?

Flight Crew (as in flight crew in general)

and

Flight Crew Member (as in 'member' of a specific flight crew)

maybe? :confused:

Or

Flight Crew Manual (as in our airline)

Or how about Flight Crew (FO) and Flight CoMmander? :confused:

It was with reference to the flight deck crew, pilot and co-pilot.

REF
 

"It was with reference to the flight deck crew, pilot and co-pilot"

:ugh: Yes, even the flight crew here have worked that out!!!

But without a context we are all guessing - Where did you hear or see the mystery abbreviations "FC" and "FCM".. Public address announcement, Crew Badge, Customs Declaration?

(edited to add: It might be worth asking the same question on the Nordic Forum...maybe it's a Nordic Abbreviation)

Slight confusion there - apologies!

It was on the crew manifest.

OK, in that context as Debate said FC will be Flight Crew. No idea why one would have an additional 'M'.
