Has anyone ever heard of or seen inappropriate behavior with fight attendants towards the pilot or copilot...?

Question

my bf once told me about a clip he saw onine regarding this topic...I sure as h**l hope this is not common as my bf wil be a copilot soon BUT I want honest answers...

Answer 1

If you live long enough, you will see anything.  But aircrews are adult professionals whose minds are on their jobs, and exceptions to this are rare.

"Inappropriate behavior" of a noticeable sort usually gets people fired, and contrary to what some people like to say on Yahoo!Answers, sexual shenanigans are only very rarely a part of any pilot's or flight attendant's career.  It really doesn't happen very often, and that's the honest answer you asked for.

On the other hand, as someone else mentioned, if you don't trust your boyfriend, then it won't matter what his career is.  He could be a plumber or a turret-lathe operator, and he will still find someone to cheat with.  You need to work out the trust issues independent of his career choices.

Good luck!

Since this appears to be an aviation topic, I'm going to assume that you meant  "inappropriate behavior between *flight attendants* and pilots/co-pilots".

When you ask whether "inappropriate behavior" occurs between aircrew personnel (pilots/co-pilots & flight attendants), which, if what you really want to know  is "do aircrew personnel have sexual relations with each other?", the answer to both questions is.. "yes".

Aircrew personnel having sexual relations with each other is only a problem if one or both are married (to other spouses!) or supposedly in dedicated relationships with other partners. Example, if Captain Mike Smith (male, married) has an affair with Attendant Julie White (female, single), the problem is not that they're both aircrew. The problem is that a married man has s*x with a woman other than his wife, e.g. extramarital s*x, which is often referred to as "having an affair". An affair is not an "accident", but a deliberate series of events. One party should be blamed for not keeping a vow of faithfullness. {Breaking a vow of faithfullness is also known as "adultery", which is a crime, and grounds for divorce.} The other party, however, should be also held responsible for having a sexual relationship with a married man who is not *her* husband. This is known as making a bad decision. It is a question of morality. Unfortunately the stigma associated with "cheaters" no longer holds enough value to discourage the participants from committing their illegal/immoral actions. If you are concerned that your boyfriend may be exposed to unsolicited sexual advances by female flight attendants, I would encourage you to have an open (honest) conversation with him. Without screaming or yelling, explain the scenario which makes you concerned. Then tell him how that would affect you(mentally, emotionally, physically). I would also suggest making a contract between yourselves, clearly outlining any penalties that may be assessed if the contract is violated. Lastly, I would encourage you to "stick to your guns". If your boyfriend becomes a pilot, then has an affair with a flight attendant, and you proceed in your relationship, perhaps even marry him... let me repeat myself: "affairs are not *accidents*". And I've never known a leopard to change his spots.

Answer 4

Honey,

Those  men and women fly all over the country and world.  They stay together and are like a little family.  And those girls are paid to be pretty.  He is going to have some oppurtunity, but you just make sure he has something to look forward to when he gets home, and there should be no big deal.

Answer 5

sure there is inappropriate behavior - there is inappropriate behavior anywhere . If you bf is vulnerable to it, he will be tempted anywhere .... as an airline pilot or not. Seems to me you have some major trust issues to work on.

Answer 6

There is all kinds of shenanigans going on. Overnights are part of the deal and what people do on their overnights is quite varied.
