"Perhaps I hurt some peoples feelings to suggest that I don’t let the F/O make announcements. But to insure that only the bare legal minimum is spewed over the P.A. , I make the announcements. The guys coming out of the military are not trained and experienced in making many announcements and most airlines or commuters do not give a lot directions in the subject. I also instruct the F/A’s to minimize the announcements on red-eye flights. It’s all about the passenger and if the F/O gets their feelings hurt than I’m sorry. But if they want to chat on channel 9 for an hour then that’s OK.
- I balance it out a little because I do most walk- arounds."
If you think you speak so well, why can't you spell?
