I've told my girlfriend (early 20's) that when I do move on to a major airline that I'll likely be flying with older guys/girls. We have been together since high school so she knows how the industry works.

A few weeks ago she was waiting to get onto a US Air flight and was sitting somewhere near the gate and the crew came by and sat down next to her while waiting for the inbound aircraft. She said now she understands about having to work with older guys. She said both pilots were old and that the gray haired FO was hitting on her while she was sitting there at the gate.

So, to the author of the thread, when have ethics ever had a place in aviation?
