FAA F/A License

[lowlycfi]

One more thing to think about:

In the past with no F/A certificate all violations were against the company. With a certificate of your very own the violation is against you. So keep those manuals up to date and do not leave the aircraft with pax on board to get a mocca latte.

Not true. I know first hand of two F/As who paid fines due to manuals not being up to date. Manual violations were against the F/A and any violations on the a/c (equipment missing, broken, etc.) were against the company.

This "F/A Certification" thing has been bouncing around for years...

There has been various "takes" on it...

From trying to elevate the pay, stature, rest rules and other "airman certificated" perks (jumpseats) and some company specific items... (some companys throw stock options at "airmen certificated" employees...)


As one guy mentioned... there was some heavy talk of it a few years ago.... then the FAA was going to say ok .. but you all need physicals... and then things got real quiet for a while..

But now its back.... and done....

Everyone hear we're getting photos on the pilot certificates soon?

There are exceptions. Mostly the fine was against the company.
