Cockpit visit

Greetings to all.

I have run into a discussion whose answer is not clear. The question,
especially since 9/11, and its variant is:

Can passengers on commercial flights, during the flight, visit the
flightdeck (with captain's
permission, of course!)?

Essentially, is it the FAA or IATA that makes that determination or is it
air carrier policy?

Any links to the relevant documents would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Charlie

Well, I was an English major, but one Monday, one Tuesday and two on Wednesday
gives me four...

Ikky, visits are -only- allowed at the gate, when the door is open. If you come
in any other time, your family will be crying over your grave.

If he gets permission from the captain and he winds up in a grave, there
will be pilots' families crying over lifetime sentences for murder, after
they get fired by the airline...

You sure you advising what you're practicing? Read it yourself again,
emphasis on the original question.

Door open, captain give permission, bang bang, say goodbye to wings, pilot
certificate, career, family and rest of your life.

Door closed, passenger comes in, no one asks any questions but shoots first,
same result. Guaranteed.

This kind of John Wayne In The Cockpit prepubescent bull**** is precisely
the reason the FFDO program is going to be choked with dental floss until it
keels over and disappears.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Nope. If the door is open at the gate, no security breach has
occurred and we expect visitors.

Again, nope. Security breach had now occurred, the 'visitor' is going down.
Guaranteed.

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA, you a funny guy. It will never disappear. You better get your
meds refilled, you're running low.
