The purpose of pressurizing an airline cabin is to provide a comfortable flight for the passengers and aircrew. Cabin is also pressurized so that the aircraft structure will not be damaged due to differential pressure. If the cabin pressure is below 10p.s.i. the passengers and aircrew will not be able to breathe and anorexia starts to occur which can lead to drowsiness and fatality. Therefore cabin pressurisation is very important.

As altitude increases the atmosphere gets thinner, making it more difficult to breathe. By pressurizing the interior, the people inside can breathe more easily.

Do Commercial Cargo Freighter aircrafts airliners have Cabin Crew?

Cabin crews perform their duty in the cabin. Typically there is no cabin in cargo aircraft. Cabin area is replaced by main deck and no passenger to service. I don't think airline will assign cabin crew to follow flight to serve pilots and license aircraft engineer (if any) onboard.

Why is important for cabin crew member to communication skills?

There are many types of cabin crew documentations but the main purpose of all of them is to keep a record of how the flight went and any problems that may have happened. •Bar/Catering Documentation. This document keeps a record of all the bar/catering sales made on a certain flight and the amount of money made. The importance of keeping a record of this is for the airline to make sure that all the products are being sold at the right price, also it is important for cabin crew to have the right amount of money that they made of the products they sold as they are normally on commission. • Cabin Defects Log This document keeps a record of all the defects that the aircraft may have (e.g. oven is broken, seatbelts missing, etc). The purpose for keeping a record of this is for these to be fixed when the aircraft reaches the destination. • Cabin Safety Report These keep a record on any injuries or safety related incidents (e.g. safety equipment used on board) that may have occurred during the flight, for these to be then investigated by the airline's safety department. • Disruptive Passenger Report Form As the name says it this document keeps a record on any disruptive passenger that there could have been on the flight. These records will then go to the DFT (Department For Transport) for them to be able to investigate why it happened and what type of passenger its was and think about a way of preventing it in the future. The airline will also keep a copy of this document for its records
