it's important to understand that having an attractive CSR gal is as much a safety concern as it is customer service concern. Picture this......a lonely handsome pilot comes into the airport after flying all night, braving the harshest wx for the sake of humanity. He gets out of his a/c and wearily ...

The greatest difficulty comes in when you begin to cross the emotion boundaries that readily exist between CSR and customer. As you watch her work, there can tend to be a level of admiration develope for how much she can pull, eat, sweat, drink etc..........You may begin to have thoughts of wanting ...

There is a benefit to havin' a larger gal as a CSR. If you could get a harnass made for her she could back up to the challenger and move it around the ramp saving the tug for the smaller a/c that pull in........this would be safe on the environment and all that would be required would be a " weiner"...

As an FBO manager......if you must insist on hiring the big gal in sweat pants, that when she walks it looks like there are two pigs wreastlin in the sack......at least go out of your way to make her feel comfortable behing the desk. Once she nestles into the chair she ain't movin' and she'll get re...

You are so right once again. The true benefit of the bell is that you could leave the salt lick at home. "come boss, come boss" is all you would need to say and you would here her runnin' across the ramp.

Tail...........

I agree fully. There should be a ban on all "weiner" at FBO's. I would gladly have a few big gals on the salt lick.....churrin' out butter than one "weiner" attentin' to my a/c.

Nothern,

" how now brown cow"..........I totally disagree with the introduction of more male FBO CSR's. Gettin' a gentle pat on the "rump" roast from a male CSR after a long flight...welcoming me to his FBO just isn't the same.

Disposition,

remember on thing ok. All you have is your integrity at the end of the day. Nothing else matters. Any smart CP with any experience will affirm the personality conflicts and political BS runs rampant. Don't seat the small stuff. In ten yrs you'll look back and smile.

I've had alot of good success at some of these facilities if I put out a salt like right by the front tire after I land. The heifers tend to stay right around the front of the a/c and lick the salt......you never have to yell very loud anymore to find them.

Well well well. At the risk of sounding like a sloth......I must admit that an attractive CSR will revive even the most tired pilot.....this becomes even more important if you are cat drivers vintage :lol:

Big Bird Anonumous...... I am baffled how the defence will even present this case. Once the CARS req are stated and the case is presented I think the jury or whom ever it is will roast this guy alive....maybe temp insanity. There do seem to be things that just don't add up for pete's sake....like wh...

Flying Nuwf, I am finding your comments lacking in depth...flippant if you will. This industry is going down hill because we have insufficient accountability for the positions of responsibility that we hold. You look up the CARS definition of CP and tell me what it says he is responsible...I know pe...

Ok every one. Here is what I think should happen. 1. The pilot should be tried in a court of law, criminally. He should be given a fair trial with everything laid on the table. A jury should determine his fate. 2. The CP and OPS MNGR should be delt with by TC resulting in a heavy fine of some sort (...

Cat....I 110% agree with you on this issue. TC has on many occasions proven their incompetence in CARS interpretation scenarios.....and demonstrated pure and simple concern only for their own liability than anything else. It's almost as if they think they exist only and soley for themselves.....they...

Absolutley......I think the pilot would never have done what he did unless there was pressure from above.....or at least a culture that was propogated from above. The CP and OPS MNGRs were cognizant of all that was going on there at the time. They could all share the same cell....:) Flying newf........
