- 1Pilot Incapacitation Procedures
- 2Flight Attendant Incapacitated- inform the F/D
- all duties and responsibilities are reassigned to all other crew members
- ensure the incapacitated crewmember is cared for and relocated to a pax seat (in case of a/c full - a pax could seat in the jump seat, no adjacent to emergency exits)
- reassign a crewmember so exit is covered (a crew member can be responsible for more than 1 exit) - 3Identifying the Source of Smoke- lavatories, crew rest compartments and VCC are the only equipped with smoke detectors
- treat a smoke occurrence as a fire until proven otherwise
- the odor should be traced to the strongest location (to pinpoint the source); or a abnormally warm surface
- whether the source is identified or not, the correspondent area or all area circuit breakers should be pulled - if the source is not identified and is coming from the galley area, isolate the area by using the ''galley shutoff''
- smoke emissions from an electrical source, first remove the power source
- keep firefighting equipment available in case the situation deteriorates - 4How the circuit breakers work- provide protection from overheating, deactivating totally or partially the electrical installation
- facilitates the isolation of specific circuits that don't have any other switching mechanism
Notes:
- a circuit breaker that has been pulled automatically should never be re-engaged by cabin crew
- all electrical failures/malfunctions are to be reported to the flight crew
- circuit breaker re-engagement has been the cause of smoke and fire occurrences. Do not use the circuit breakers as ON/OFF switches - 5Protection from smoke inhalation- cabin crew should put on a PBE to protect themselves from the effects of smoke inhalation
- cockpit door should remain closed to prevent contamination
- pax should be relocated (if possible) and keep their heads as low as possible to the floor level; wet towels or cloths should be distributed and used over nose and mouth for protection
Note: incapacitation due to smoke inhalation, may diminish the ability to evacuate the aircraft - 6Fire Detections - Be aware of:- fumes or unusual odors
- electrical malfunctions (circuit breakers pulling)
- noises with may indicate electrical arcing
- hot spots on sidewalls, floors and panels
- pax/crewmembers suddenly developing eye irritation, sore throats, and/or headaches
- CC must immediately investigate any reports from pax that may indicate a fire - 7—x
