...This is kinda off the topic, but one time as a gate agent for DL, I helped dispatch a Ferry flight that had DL non-revs on it (no revenue PAX). No Flight Attendants, but someone had to come on before the flight was dispatched, and as I remember they all had to say that they were aware of the Emergency Procedures, etc. I don't know if this followed the rules or not, but the plane sure was dispatched without F/A's. Interesting, and that was the only instance I was involved in that particular scenario.....
