Flight Attendants - a new GC rank

Post by rav72 »

Dear Fellow Pilots,

Since we are introducing pax operations in April and given the surplus of FO's, we are introducing a new GC rank, i.e. Flight Attendants. We have decided, effective from 0000Z tonight, to take the bottom 1/3 of the FO's and make them FA's until we can promote some FO's to Captain to make room.

Flight Attendants will be pulled from the monthly bid system and MUST fly at least 1 pax flight per month before they can fly any other flights.

Below you can find a dedicated banner all the newly appointed FA's should use as their Forum signatures.

If you need any clarification please post your questions in this topic.

I belong to a rather large and lively passenger VA, the only reason I joined here was
to fly CARGO. Further, foisting this demotion on people after they joined is completely
unprofessional.

Did any of you consider the fact that "flight attendants" are the ones in the cabin
serving coffee, tea, and peanuts?

Please reconsider or I shall go spend my flying time elsewhere, and I doubt
my feelings are going to be unique in this issue.

Regards,

Jaybird

Seems reminiscent of my time in the RAF when we bodged up a Strike Command Immediate signal. Before next flight all Buccaneer aircraft. Flight line mechanic to sit in ejection seat square on to pilots rear view mirror and close one eye then open it rapidly and observe any time lag.
Believe me the results were astounding!!!!!!!! :lol:

I didn't realize the date. This coincides with the April 1st launch of passenger operations.

Ralf will be issuing a NOTAM in the next couple of days with more details of the Flight Attendant rank and its operation.
