Study Notes

Evacuation Commands

In safe conditions, use the command "Out of my way!" to assess the exit while shouting "Stand back, hold people back!"
Open the exit, pull the manual inflation handle, and reassess the conditions outside the aircraft.
Use the ABP commands: "You lead people away, You two stay at the bottom, pull people off, send them away."
Shout "Come this way," "Stay Low, Jump," and then "Look out the window, if it's safe open it!"

Special Slide Techniques

For infants, leave the carrier in the seat and hold the baby in your lap, facing forward.
Use the sit and scoot method if time allows.
For non-English speaking customers and parents with more than one child, assign "buddies" to assist.
For service animals/guide dogs, do not remove the harness, hold them in your lap.
For customers with disabilities, assign "buddies" to assist, and use the sit and scoot method.
Move customers by their shoulders, and evacuate non-ambulatory customers and attendants after the main flow of traffic.

Emergency Equipment Retrieval

On the A321, the emergency equipment is located at doors A, B, C, D, and E.
The equipment includes flashlights, first aid kits, megaphones, life rafts, and ELT.

Duties After Evacuation

Administer first aid to customers in shock.
Identify people to assist and give everyone an assignment.
Re-enter the aircraft when safe, after engines have cooled and fuel has evaporated.
Stay with the aircraft and refrain from communication.

Survival After Evacuation

80% of all emergencies are unplanned, and most occur during taxi, takeoff, and landing.
71% of fatalities occur after the aircraft has come to a stop.
64% of severe injuries occur after the aircraft has come to a stop.
Less than 14% of all accidents result in fatalities.

Unplanned Emergencies

Unplanned emergencies often result in evacuations.
Commands should be shouted during an unplanned emergency.
Stop shouting commands when the evacuation is complete.

Overwing Slide Exits

Overwing exits are a last resort in a water ditching.
The slides are not detachable and cannot be used as a raft.

Failure to Automatically Deploy

Slides may not automatically inflate if the aircraft does not drop to a 45-degree angle.
The remedy is to pull the manual inflation handle.

Ditching Emergency Checklist

The checklist includes setting lights to bright, reading the ditching announcement, and distributing infant life vests.
Crew life vests should be obtained and donned during the safety demo.

Evacuation Commands

"Out of my way!" is used to clear the exit path.
"Stand back, hold people back!" and "Hold onto the white handle" are commands to assess the exit and prepare for evacuation.
"ABP Commands" include "You lead people away, You two stay at the bottom, pull people off, send them away."
"Come this way" and "Stay Low, Jump" are used to direct people during evacuation.
"Look out the window, if it's safe open it!" is used to assess the outside conditions.

Special Slide Techniques

For infants, leave the carrier in the seat and hold the child facing forward in your lap.
For non-English speaking customers and parents with multiple children, assign "buddies" to assist.
For service animals/guide dogs, do not remove the harness and hold them in your lap.
For customers with disabilities, assign "buddies" to assist and use the "sit and scoot" method.
Non-ambulatory customers and attendants should evacuate after the main flow of traffic.

Emergency Equipment Retrieval

The location of emergency equipment on an A321 aircraft is as follows:
- A: FlyTab/EFAM, Flashlight, First Aid Kit
- B: FlyTab/EFAM, Flashlight, Megaphone
- C: FlyTab/EFAM, Flashlight, ELT
- D: FlyTab/EFAM, Flashlight, Life Raft
- E: FlyTab/EFAM, Flashlight, Life Raft

Duties After Evacuation

Conduct a customer count and administer first aid as needed.
Identify people to assist and give everyone an assignment.
Re-enter the aircraft when safe, after engines have cooled and fuel has evaporated.

Survival After Evacuation

80% of all emergencies are unplanned.
Most unplanned emergencies that result in evacuations occur during taxi, takeoff, and landing.
71% of fatalities and 64% of severe injuries occur after the aircraft has come to a stop.
Less than 14% of all accidents result in fatalities.

Unplanned Emergencies

Commands should be shouted during unplanned emergencies.
When to start shouting commands: "Brace, Brace, Brace", "Remain Seated, Remain Seated", "Evacuate, Evacuate".
When to stop shouting commands: TBD.

Overwing Slide Exits

Overwing exits are a last resort in a water ditching because the slides are not detachable and cannot be used as a raft.

Failure to Automatically Deploy

Slides may not automatically inflate because the aircraft may not drop to a 45-degree angle.
The remedy is to pull the manual inflation handle.

Ditching Emergency Checklist

A320 differences:
1. Set lights to bright (FA "A" or "B").
2. Read ditching announcement (FA "B").
3. Attach survival kits at designated doors (All FAs).
4. Distribute infant life vests (FA "B", "C", & "D").
5. Obtain crew life vest which will be donned during safety demo (All FAs).
