You gotta pay them the "good salary" first. UAL pilots were B. Madoffed(by their own company) before Bernie was even getting started.I thought paying pilots a good salary was supposed to prevent stuff like this?
Your not doing your job unless you take input from the back of the airplane seriously.
We were taxing out of Houston and the FA calls up front and says that a passenger is hearing a weird noise from over the wing..where his seat was. He said the "flappy things" on the top of things were also just going up and down. Well, they were and they were not supposed to be. Our taxi speed would have kept them closed and it was happening so fast, the indication in the cockpit was moving so fast, it did not trigger a message. We taxied a little further and stop in the run up area..as soon as we stopped, we get an EICAS message. We called MX and they advised us to taxi back. When we got back to the gate, I went back and thanked the guy. He said he did not initially want to bother us but has flown with us quite a bit and never heard or seen that before. I am not saying he saved the airplane and her occupants, but he prevented an interesting situation.
Never discount those in the back...
Wanna make odds that the FA was some battle hag who was there for the Wright brothers first flight
" the indication in the cockpit was moving so fast, it did not trigger a message."This didn't give you a config warning or some other indication, prior?
Is that anything like the difference between "forth" and "fourth"?
That is awesum!
