When the main cabin door is closed the cockpit door is then closed and locked. Typically the pilots are in the cockpit when this occurs which is the preferred technique. Though it's happened where the cockpit is very much secure with the pilots out of it. Makes it a real PITA to fly using the latter technique I understand.

I remember the days when the captain would let you ride in the cockpit with him if you asked nicely.  Sad that those days are gone.

If I fly swoop's airline and see a pilot running to the back of the game, I will assume he's manning the rear guns.

WTG Swoops! My old buddy and long time squadron mate; Talliven from VF-17 is also a pilot with that airline; I bet you guys might have been in the same group at one time or another.

Passed my FAA 121 ATP CL-65 Type Certificate ride and will be hauling Passengers around starting this next week.  If you happen to be in the back of one of our American Eagle CRJ-700's and hear the Flight attendant Announce "Captain Nicholas B. Smith" feel free to stop by the cockpit and say hello.

<S>

Swoops,

I fly you guys every week!! Lol, are you based out of DFW?
