Pascoe

I remember reading a while back an account of something like this actually happening in the states on an internal flight. All very exciting and sensational until you drill down into the small print that the person assisting I think was an ex marine pilot who helped work the radios.

Still laudable, but as you say, the genuinely unknown scenario of taking a total stranger into the cockpit and taking on faith that they would be able to do what was required of them sounds in my limited experience like it might risk increasing, not decreasing both cockpit workload and therefore risk, for the remaining functional pilot.

Hence my Q around whether there was ever anything more formal in place within the airlines with CC staff.

Thanks for the colour
