NO different wit the pilot types, get it in a contract, pilots have priority over FD JS and FA's over cabin JS's it would work and take it further, only on company metal-it would work just fine.Plus, there really is no difference with some pilot types...when it comes to sticklers-most of them know how boring it can get, when they come up just to keep the seats warm.
JB FAs have priority over any and every JB pilot on the Cabin Jumpseat...they'll never be permanently allowed in the cockpit because of exactly what Flyer2000 is saying below.

Mechanics must be "on duty" and have a direct need to monitor the inflight systems.
The benefits, or distractions of having either group allowed in the cockpit are not relevant. Incorporating training into class so that they are educated on sterile cockpit thereby allowing you to help a fellow employee get home is not relevant. Look up FSIMS Vol. 3 Chapter 2 Para 3-41 on the FAA website, and it will help clear things up for you.
Nice dig...most around here don't bother to back their opinions with a factual reference!
