They do have re-current every 12 months, mandatory per FAR's.......full evacuation mode, and normal opertating of the doors, CPR, AED, and security.......each airline it's different times........at UAL it's 16 hours worth...
And don't forget some airlines (like most regionals, and SWA) they have to clean the airplanes before they can leave.....

But while as a pilot you get to shut the door, from the folks, they have to sit and listen to them whine about why we are delayed (while lightening is popping all around)............and why they are late, and why the are going to miss thier connections........and why in first class they didn't get a choice of "ranch or cesar" salad dressing.............the grass isn't always green-er on the other side!!!!

I know some girls who do this, but few regional FA's would qualify. The ones I know are all ex-major airline FA's, not too young or too old, have college degrees, are pretty and elegant, and really know how to carry them selves well. None have ever mentioned a thing about inapropriate advances, and I don't think they would put up with it for a second.
let see how the FA's at my regional compare to that list...
-they are all ex-highschool students
-either cant drink, or quialify for senior discounts
-have a diploma (some have GED's)
ill leave your imagination to whether or not they are pretty, elegant and can really carry them selves well...

I agree with you here, my mom has a college degree and is also a pilot... She does a LOT at her company, the catering alone is rediculous... wish I got fed like that.... and to whomever said there was "more to the chicken or beef" is an idiot, she works for a corporation not some man... there are many corporate FA's who make 6 digits..... many

I myself thought it was pretty amusing when I read it, not to say anything against your mother, who I am sure is a lovely and wholesome woman.
