Monday on my way home from a trip.

They would need to be in CASS to use any 121 jumpseat.

I don't need to cut them any slack because I wasn't giving them any grief. I was making a point that I like to look into the cockpits of airplanes but that it is either inconveinent to do so or the FAs are blocking the view and I'm certainly not going to ask them to move so I can get a better view. It was pretty late in the evening so I'm sure that they were probably on the backside of those 8 legs you speak of and yes - it was a very quick turn; plus I'm impressed that the CA was the one doing the walk around.

.Besides, some CA's just prefer to do the walk around.

More so when the weather is nice, like in SAN.
