The Flight Crew

The flight crew are the men and the women who work in an aircraft when it is flying from one city to another. They can be divided into two groups:

1. those who fly the aircraft and

2. those who work with the passengers.

The first group consists normally of two or more people who work on the flight deck. They are the captain and the co-pilot, sometimes there is one more member in the flight deck team and it is a flight engineer. (There may be a navigator and radio-operator too).

 

The Cabin Crew

1. The people who work in the cabin with the passengers (PAX) are called the cabin crew (staff). The senior member of the cabin crew who is responsible to the captain is called the flight director or cabin services director on wide-bodied aircraft, the Boeing 767 for example, and the purser on smaller aircraft.

On wide-bodied aircraft, a purser is in charge of a separate cabin area or class of passengers, and reports to the flight director or cabin services director.

 

2. Those who work under the senior member of the cabin crew are called stewards or stewardesses (or air hostesses) by the public, but they should be correctly called cabin (flight) attendants, or CAs for short.

 

Answer the questions:

1. What is the name of the group of people who work on an airliner?

2. Who is the most senior person on an airliner?

3. Who does he share his work with?

4. Where do pilots work?

5. Who is sometimes the third member of the flight deck team?

6. Who is the senior member of the cabin crew?

7. What is the correct name of a member of the cabin crew?

8. Who is the flight director responsible to?

9. Who is the purser responsible to on wide-bodied aircraft?

10. What is a purser in charge of on wide-bodied aircraft?

11. How are cabin attendants called by the public?

General Layout

Many people like travelling. The most convenient means of travelling is a plane. Passengers can travel first class, business class and economy class. That’s why the plane is divided into two, three or four passenger cabins, which are called the first class cabin, the business (club, executive) class cabin and the economy class cabin. The first class cabin is the smallest, but the most comfortable.

The seats can be arranged two-by-two or three-by-three depending on the class flight. The seats are numbered in rows from the nose of the aircraft to the tail and lettered from the right to the left as you look back from the flight deck.

Above the cabin door there are two notices (signs): the Fasten Seat Belt sign and the No Smoking sign. The No Smoking sign is always switched on as all Aeroflot Flights are Non-Smoking. The Fasten Seat Belt sign is switched on while taxiing, taking off, ascending, descending and landing.

The doors in the passenger cabin are fitted with curtains and a carpet covers the cabin floor.

The overhead baggage racks or the overhead stowage bins, which are for coats and light items extend along the cabin walls. Above each group of seats there is a passenger service unit consisting of an air vent (nozzle), an individual light and an attendant call button.

The cabin (side) window has a rigid blind (shade) which serves as a light filter in sunny weather.

The passenger cabins are provided with a lighting system: general, dim, emergency and individual lighting.

The passenger chair is very comfortable and has all necessary comfort features including a reclining seatback, a pushbutton to fix the seatback in a comfortable position, folding armrests, a tray-table, a seat pocket for small items, a disposable headrest cover, a foot-step for a First Class flight passenger.

Each class can be distinguished by the size of the seats and the distance or pitch between them.

Baby cots are carried on board each aircraft. They are attached to the bulkhead in the cabin. Each baby cot is supplied with a bedding and a baby kit.

 

The Galley – Pantry

The galley – pantry is designed for cooking hot meals and cold appetizers (starters), and for beverage and fruit storage.

It is provided with metal containers for dishes and foods, electric boilers, heating ovens. The galley –pantry is provided with hot and cold water supply. There is a special board with the switches and the stewardess’s interphone here.

 

Passenger Service Unit

Above each group of seats there is a passenger service unit often having three functions. It may be necessary to show an inexperienced passenger what it is used for.

Boarding the Aircraft

For cabin attendants there are two particular points that they should note. Firstly, if weather conditions are bad, the flight may be delayed or diverted. In this case CАs must be ready to deal with passengers for whom this creates a problem. Secondary cabin attendants must note if any important passengers are booked on the flight. The purser will brief the cabin crew of any special requirements that passengers may have. This may include special meals, special seating arrangements for disabled or sick passengers. Such passengers as unaccompanied minors (UMs) are normally pre-boarded.

In –Flight Meal Service

On international flights passengers are served aperitif, appetizers, hot meals, dessert and hot drinks with confectionery.

The type of service depends on the time of day, the class of a passenger and the length of the flight leg.

The main meals served are breakfast, lunch and dinner.

In general, first class passengers receive a restaurant-type service with a choice of food and alcoholic drinks, but economy-class passengers receive a pre-set tray without variants or choice.

In all classes soft drinks are complimentary. In first class alcoholic drinks are also complimentary.

Breakfast can be, so-called, a continental breakfast that can be a light meal consisting of a roll or a croissant with jam or marmalade, with fruit juice and tea or coffee.

Lunch and dinner are more substantial meals which are served at midday or in the evening.

 

They usually consist of:

- an appetizer (a starter)

- a hot main dish of meat or fish or poultry garnished or with a choice of garnish

- dessert of cheese and fresh fruit

- tea or coffee with confectionery.

 

Snacks are small items of food served between main meals.

Pre- set trays for economy class passengers are prepared on the ground before flight (partially or completely).

Pre-packed hot main courses are often provided and have to be re-heated in the galley and added to the partially pre-set tray.

Some airlines prefer to offer food of their own national cuisine.

Aeroflot first-class passengers are served sturgeon (or salmon) caviar and pancakes with chopped egg-white, egg-yolk, onions, and also sour cream, lemon wedges and Russian vodka.

Before serving meals the cabin attendant must inform passengers when and what meals to expect.

 

The following announcement is made:

 

X Ladies and gentlemen.

We are ready to serve you a hot/cold breakfast.

or

X Ladies and gentlemen.

Your breakfast will be served in 10 minutes.
