Those of you that find this "unacceptable" have never worked in the
envinronment.
others are well aware.

How many people have employment situations where "sleeping on the job" is
acceptable; most often it is explicitly a firing offence. If the guy was
too stupid to at least close the door, I sure don't want him flying a plane
I'm riding in.

The only person who may be in the wrong here is the FO if he observed the
filming and did not wake the NFP / CPT.

You think it would have been okay if he only been observed sleeping by
passengers, but not filmed?

I have spent many many hours both RHS and now LHS in 747`s, both freight
and
pax, guess what... we sleep in cruise from time to time!! and I am much
more
comfortable sleeping in the seat, than in the bunks, ( obviously a luxury
many
types do not have)
big deal, OK so I am a little suprised that a guy felt the need in a
twotter,
but whatever, he was tired, the FP was obviously more than capable, or so
the
NFP would have thought, or he would not have been sleeping.
Regards this issue, it is all about perception, not safety.


Then lets eliminate the required second crew member, if he is not really
needed, and save the labor expense.
