Pilots Before vs After The Bulletproof Door

What many younger viewers might not know, is that after the 9/11 terroristic attacks, flight decks of all passenger planes got an upgrade. A simple cockpit door was replaced by a massiv bulletproof door which since then is always locked. Many things, in a good or bad way, have been much more casual before, but that has found a sudden end... Like funny and philosophic stories about aviation?

is it still possible to maybe be allowed into the cockpit ?
or is it against the rules

[@xansuperviellemalmose7347]

Still possible, once landed I frequently ask to go have a chat with the pilots, and unless there is that famous « I have a phone number for you to call » because of an incident, they’ll usually accept

I highly depends on the airline. Once the plane is docked and a flight is over, the cockpit is "open" again. Per regulations the flightdeck door must be locked for unauthorized personnel or any passengers from the moment boarding begins and de-boarding ends.
