- A flight-deck panel pairs cockpit-security items with short status notes, including “verified from inside” and “varies by airline.”
Field notes
The homepage groups material into six sections, including Schedules & Seniority, Ops Explained, and Incidents Decoded. Its two dated story entries cover pilot monthly schedules and cockpit security after the FZ1073 attack. A small flight-deck panel lists items such as cockpit-door status, two-pilot rules, and crash-axe storage. Layovers, training, and life-at-home sections are labeled as awaiting their first story.
