(3) A brief history of the emblem of the Civil Aviation Administration of New China.

1949 1 1.2 After the establishment of the Civil Aviation Bureau of the Central People's Revolutionary Military Commission, there has been no unified emblem of the Civil Aviation Bureau in New China, which has brought a lot of inconvenience to the civil aviation business. To this end, the leaders of the Civil Aviation Administration of the Military Commission designated the emblem pattern of the Civil Aviation Administration, which consists of the earth, Chinese terrain, military flags, gears and wings, and submitted it to Zhou Enlai, Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, for approval on August 28th. On September 20 of the same year, Vice President Zhou gave instructions: "I agree to use this sign, but the flag is a national flag, not a military flag." Soon, the flag in the emblem of the Civil Aviation Administration was changed to the national flag, which was officially promulgated and implemented. However, in the process of implementation, the emblem of the Civil Aviation Administration was redesigned because of the complex pattern, laborious production and printing, and not concise and eye-catching.

The two wings represent air transport and general aviation, and they are in gold, yellow or dark blue according to different situations.

(B) language expression and organizational skills

Being a blue sky messenger is the dream of many girls. Indeed, the working environment, income and status all look good. It often gives people a sense of mystery. In fact, don't over-idealize this profession. A flight attendant flies outside for a day, with a stop of more than ten hours, smiling, pouring tea and delivering meals ... From morning till night for more than ten hours, she has to present a full and enthusiastic image, which is a severe test for her health. So you should also know about the professional quality and psychological quality requirements of flight attendants, as well as the heavy workload. The working characteristics of flight attendants run through the whole flight preparation and landing process, which is very different and difficult from ground catering service. Let's talk about the job responsibilities of flight attendants first.

Flight attendants provide passengers with drinks, meals, travel knowledge and simple medical assistance. In case of emergency and need to land at sea or land, flight attendants should follow the daily training procedures and assist passengers to evacuate the plane quickly and safely under the guidance of the captain. Flight attendants also need to help passengers solve medical problems and emergencies. The FAA's requirements for first aid training involve the handling of emergencies, including "illness, injury or other abnormal conditions". Crew members working above 25,000 feet above sea level must receive all kinds of emergency education related to altitude, such as dealing with dyspnea and hypoxia. Generally speaking, flight attendants must complete the check-in procedures before the plane takes off (30 minutes on domestic routes and 40 minutes on international routes), and they must prepare their clothes and appearance before checking in. Before take-off, the captain will call all the staff to explain the task and arrange the task. Flight attendants must organize newspapers and magazines and prepare towels, drinks and meals. When passengers board the plane, flight attendants greet them at the door, guide the passengers to their seats, demonstrate life jackets and check safety belts before taking off. Domestic routes have short voyage and simple service. When the plane lands, the waiter will broadcast, say goodbye to the passengers and recycle the newspaper headphones.

Flight attendants should not only ensure that passengers have comfortable flight conditions, but also be responsible for the safety of passengers on board. New flight attendants must attend initial training, which usually lasts for six weeks, including familiarization with aircraft, emergency procedures and on-board services. In order to stay skilled, they have to receive training every year. Many people think that it is nothing more than "bringing tea and water". When you arrive at the crew training center, you will change your original concept. Cabin service is not simple. It is a science, especially aviation service, which has its special requirements and characteristics different from other industries. "What to do with flight delay", "What to do with special passengers, such as seven or eight children on a flight at the same time" and "What to do with regular customers" ... These difficulties, key points and doubts encountered in actual flight work are the main contents of crew training, including aviation service etiquette, aviation machinery knowledge, meteorology, geography knowledge, air medical service, cabin service skills, aircraft knowledge, emergency response and so on.

New passengers usually go through four training stages before taking up their posts. First, the military training stage: according to the requirements of soldiers, strict training, exercise the spirit of hard work, cultivate a good work style and life order, and lay a solid foundation for being a qualified flight attendant. The second is the theoretical study stage, which lasts about one month. I mainly study English, aviation theory and aviation technology knowledge, aviation meteorology, fitness, aerobics and so on. The third is the practical stage (professional training), which lasts for one and a half months. Mainly cabin service, all kinds of teaching, first aid and so on. Fourth, ideological and political education, mainly current affairs and political education. Flight attendants have limited space on the plane, monotonous service, repeated take-off and landing on domestic routes, and high labor intensity and long time on international routes. You may have heard of some passengers' quality problems, so flight attendants are required to have certain patience and psychological endurance.
