C.C.O.M INTRODUCTION JAN 12
The ATR aeroplane is a narrow-bodied twin-turboprop, short-haul regional airliner

built by the Franco-Italian aeroplane manufacturer ATR (Avions de Transport
Régional/ Aerei da Transporto Regionale) based in Toulouse - Blagnac, France.
The aeroplane fuselage and tail section are manufactured near Naples - Italy, wings
are assembled near Bordeaux – France.
The engines are Pratt and Whitney and the propellers Hamilton Standard.
Final assembly, flight testing, certification and delivery are done in Toulouse.
The production consists of ATR 42 and ATR 72, the appellations “42” and “72” being
derived from the aeroplane’s capacity, which varies from 42 to 50 and 64 to 74 seats
respectively.
Several different series have been produced over the years with different
configurations and engines performances, the main ones including:
• 42-300 and 72-200: 1st generation aeroplane (1984 - 1998)
• 42-500 and 72-500: More than 900 units (1995 - 2011)
• 42-600 and 72-600 : latest generation (2011 onward)
The ATR 600 series has a complete new flight crew compartment (Glass cockpit)
with latest avionic technology.
Changes in the cabin mainly concern the overall appearance, with modernized seats.
Cabin crew are not affected by any system or emergency equipment changes
between ATR 500 series and ATR 600 series, unless specified in this manual.
ATR aeroplane generally offers a single class configuration and is operated by:
• 2 flight crew and 1 cabin crew on ATR 42
• 2 flight crew and 2 cabin crew on ATR 72

1.07_P1A: Propeller danger area (engines running)
1.07_P1B: Exhaust danger area (engines running)

C.C.O.M HOTEL MODE JAN 12
The ATR aeroplane is not fitted with an Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) but has propeller
brake (referred as “hotel mode”) that stops the propeller #2 (right engine), allowing
the turbine to run and provide air conditioning and power to the aeroplane without the
propeller spinning. The hotel mode provides DC 28V current only.
F1.08_P1A: Propeller brake location, right engine
This eliminates the need for added weight and cost of an APU.
Engines are periodically switched during maintenance to ensure equal wear.
The propeller brake is activated on the ground only, from the flight crew compartment
overhead panel.
F1.08_P1B: Propeller brake control switch (Flight crew compartment overhead panel)
C.C.O.M POWER JAN 12
The power in the cabin is fed with 2 main types of electricity:
• DC-28V (Direct Current)

• AC-115V (Alternative Current)
DC and AC power can come from different sources: the aeroplane itself (batteries
and engines generators) or ground power unit.
The aeroplane’s own batteries (“Main Bat.” and “Emer. Bat.”) deliver enough power
to activate 2 minutes of cabin lighting, cargo door operation and engine start.
Note: Those batteries are distinct from the batteries that will provide the emergency
lighting system in case of essential power failure.
• Hotel mode provides 28V (DC) in the cabin

• GPU DC-28V provides 28V (DC) in the cabin
• GPU AC-115V provides is 115V (AC)in the cabin
When the propellers are running (Flight conditions) ACW (AC wild) is produced and
converted, therefore all power sources are available.
The cabin main power supply is controlled by two Ground Service Bus (One for DC
and one for AC).
The Ground Service Bus switches are located at the rear of the aeroplane on the
FAP above the cabin crew seat.

services for cleaning purposes.
C.C.O.M FLIGHT CONTROLS JUN 13
The position of the aeroplane is controlled by movable surfaces:
• Rudder
• Elevators
• Ailerons
• Flaps
• Spoilers
F1.10_P1A: Aeroplane flight controls
PITCH
The aeroplane movement is nose up / nose down and this is achieved with mainly
the use of the ELEVATORS.
ROLL
he aeroplane movement is wing up/ wing down and this is achieved with mainly the
use Rof the AILERONS, and is assisted by hydraulically activated spoilers.
YAW
The aeroplane movement is nose right / nose left and this is achieved with mainly the
use of the RUDDER.
C.C.O.M ICE CONTAMINATION JUN 13
ATR aeroplane is equipped with:
• Electrical anti-icing system

• Pneumatic de-icing system
The anti-icing system prevents ice contamination by electrically heating specific parts
of the aeroplane, such as:
• Air data probes

• Flight crew compartment windshields and side windows
• Propeller blades
• Wings horns
R • Rudder and Elevator horns
Pneumatic de-icing removes ice contamination by inflating expandable rubber boots

R located on wings and elevator leading edges, and on the engines air intakes.
This process is done in flight at regular intervals, with two different time cycles
depending on the outside temperature.

2.04.7 PROCEDURE TO ACCESS THE FLIGHT CREW COMPARTMENT
The flight crew compartment is an area with a very restricted access. Indeed no
person, other than a flight crew member assigned to a flight, is admitted to, or carried
in, the flight crew compartment unless that person is:
• An operating crew member

• A representative of the Authority responsible for certification, licensing or
inspection if this is required for the performance of his/her official duties
• Permitted by, and carried in accordance with instructions contained in the
Operations Manual
In the interests of safety, admission to the flight crew compartment should not cause
distraction and/or interfere with the flight operation; and all persons carried on the
flight crew compartment should be made familiar with the relevant safety procedures.
The flight crew compartment door being closed from engines start for take-off until
engines shut down at parking stand; requests to access the flight crew compartment
will be done through interphone. It is, indeed, a necessity to make self known to the
flight crew before operating the flight crew compartment door panel.
NOTE: ATR offers the possibility to equip the aeroplane with a cabin video
surveillance. This option includes the installation of 3 video cameras in the cabin.
One video camera installed in the forward cargo area controls the flight crew

with a continuous diluted flow for duration of 30 min.
The cabin crew members use a portable unit (Bottle stowed under each cabin crew
seat) when in need for oxygen (See Emergency equipment chapter 7.02 p. 2).

IMPORTANT: The ATR aeroplane is flying at a maximum ceiling altitude of

25 000 Ft, at which the average Time of Useful Consciousness is 2 minutes for an
active person and 3 minutes for a passive one.
In case of rapid decompression the initial cabin crew action should be to sit down,
secure themselves and get on oxygen using their respective portable bottles and
masks.
An emergency descent will be initiated by the flight crew.
When the emergency descent has been completed and a safe altitude has been
reached, the flight crew should activate the flow of oxygen for the cabin and notify the
cabin crew members that it is safe to walk around the aeroplane.
Cabin crew members should remain on oxygen (This is to prevent any symptoms of
hypoxia during the cabin walk around) and assist where necessary.
The standard supply of oxygen (10% of passengers on ATR 200/300 series and 25%
of passengers on ATR 500/600 series) is sufficient for cabin crew to distribute only to
those passengers that could be in need of oxygen at that time.
(See emergency procedures chapter 10.04 p. 3, 4, 5)
However ATR offers the possibility for a 100% oxygen option.

OPTION 1: 100% OXYGEN
ATR offers the option to install an individual oxygen system for 100% of the
passengers.
The 100% oxygen supply to the occupants is obtained by installing above each
passenger seat an oxygen mask module containing two masks.
Supplementary oxygen mask modules, containing two masks per module, are
also installed in the vicinity of the front and rear attendant stations and in the
lavatory
OPTION 2: 100% OXYGEN AND AUTOMATIC PSU OPENING
ATR offers also the possibility to install an automatic opening of the PSU.
Control of the whole 100% oxygen with automatic opening of the PSU option
system is from a three position guarded switch “Off-Auto-On” installed on the
oxygen panel on the flight crew compartment overhead instrument panel.
F4.05_P5A: 100% Oxygen control (Flight crew compartment overhead panel)
The PSU open automatically at 13.250 ft cabin altitude providing the switch in the
flight crew compartment panel is on AUTO.
.
INADVERTENT CABIN MASK DEPLOYMENT
On ATR 500/600 series, and on 100% oxygen option models, inadvertent cabin mask
deployment may occur in case of heavy turbulence or hard landing. In these
circumstances, cabin crew should not attempt to restore the mask into the oxygen
module.
4.05.2.2 CABIN CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM
Each cabin crew member is equipped with a 120 l portable oxygen bottle, stowed
under the cabin crew seat. One bottle permits a continuous diluted flow to one crew
member at 13 000 ft for a duration of 30 minutes on Hi-flow at 4 litres per minute
(See Emergency equipment chapter 7.02 p. 2).
4.05.2.3 FLIGHT CREW OXYGEN SYSTEM
The oxygen masks are of the quick donning inflatable harness type (EROS), stowed
in a container at each flight crew station and observer station, and next to the smoke
goggles stowage:
• The mask can be donned with one hand.

• A regulator is incorporated in each mask.
• A blinker displays a yellow cross when there is O2 flow and black when there
is no O2 flow.
• An N/100% rocker controls the delivery of diluted (N) or 100% oxygen
(100%).
• A TEST/RESET push button permits testing of the oxygen flow without
removing the mask from its container.

The quick donning mask can be used in case of depressurization, or emissions

of smoke or noxious gases together with the smoke goggles:
• During decompression, with the “N/100% rocker” set to “NORMAL”, the

user breathes a mixture of cabin air and pure oxygen
• In a smoke contaminated atmosphere, the user will select the “N/100%

rocker” to “100%” for pure oxygen supply and activate the
“EMERGENCY” selector for continuous flow, together with the donning of
smoke goggles
Oxygen is provided to the 2 flight crew members plus 1 observer (Or cabin crew)
for duration of 120 minutes at demand flow.
HOW TO USE THE FLIGHT CREW COMPARTMENT OXYGEN QUICK

DONNING MASK:
1. Squeezing the red release clips unlocks the container doors. It also
enables automatic inflation of mask harness when extracted from its
container
2. Adjust the mask on the face and release the clips. The masks will
automatically fit to the face
F4.05_P7A: Donning of the oxygen Quick Donning Mask
Note 1: It is important for cabin crew to be familiar with Quick Donning Mask
operation as they could be in the flight crew compartment area when an
emergency happens.
Note 2: A lengthened hose is provided on the observer mask enabling access to

the forward cargo area with the mask on.

Note on opening the Entrance door from outside:
Difficulties may be encountered for opening the entrance door from outside. This will
arise only, when all aeroplane doors and exits are closed, and if:
– First case, GPU connected to the aeroplane: A strong extract fan runs
automatically in order to cool down the avionic/electric and electronic systems.
This fan creates suction in the flight crew compartment, cabin and cargo
(deflating) and the aeroplane is in fact depressurizing itself on the ground
– Second case, Air Conditioning Unit (ACU) connected to the aeroplane: It will
slowly pressurize the aeroplane on the ground (inflating)
DOORS AND EXITS P4
To equalize pressure and release the door:
• Slightly open the service door (from outside). Move the door handle slowly
(enough for the vent flap to open and equalize pressure) since opening fully
and quickly could make the door popping out fast, with risks of injury for the
operator
OR
• Request for ACU/GPU to be switched off and wait 2 to 3 minutes (the

pressure will equalize through the doors seals)
Recommendations to avoid these difficulties:
• Always keep the flight crew compartment document door opened

(Maintenance or flight crew responsibility)
CLOSING FROM OUTSIDE:
1. Lift the door and bring it upward against the fuselage

C.C.O.M MMEL / MEL JAN 12
The Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL) is a document created by the

aeroplane manufacturer and approved by the type certificating regulatory authority
(FAA in the USA, EASA in Europe, etc.) and lists all the safety-related items for
which revenue flights are permitted, in the event that the items are inoperative at
departure.
The MMEL specifies the conditions to be fulfilled and the procedures to be

performed, in order to allow the revenue flights to be operated with the inoperative
item for a limited period of time.
The MMEL serves as a basis for Operators in developing their own Minimum
Equipment List (MEL).
A MEL lists the instruments and equipment that may be inoperative without
jeopardizing the safety of the aeroplane. It is developed for a specific aeroplane by
the Operator and type of operation and is approved by the appropriate authority.
MMEL MEL
Created by Created by
Manufacturer Operator
The MEL cannot be less restrictive than the MMEL.
The eventual use of the MEL being subject to crew finding discrepancies with safety
equipment or aeroplane systems, it is therefore very important that all crew perform
genuine and comprehensive pre-flight checks at all time.

The device supplies 15 minutes of oxygen and enables crew members being
protected when performing relevant safety duties in case of smoke or fire.
DESCRIPTION:
The PBE is a device that completely encloses the head of the wearer and seals
around the neck with an elastic membrane. The unit is vacuum sealed in a bag and
installed in a protective stowage box within the aeroplane cabin.
The PBE can be worn with spectacles (eyeglasses).
F7.02_P8A: PBE stowage box
F7.02_P8B: PBE deployed

The PBE is composed of the following elements:
o A large clear visor

o An oronasal mask
o A speaking diaphragm
o Activation and adjustment straps
o A neck seal
o A chlorate candle
o A KO2 canister (Potassium Superoxide)
F7.02_P9A: PBE description
The hood encloses the head of the wearer and is sealed to the wearer by the neck
seal.
When the wearer breathes through the oronasal mask, the exhaled breath is routed
through the KO2 canister. The KO2 canister removes water vapour and CO2 and adds
oxygen before the gas is returned to the interior of the hood for inhalation.
EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT P 10
ACTIVATION:
• Open the stowage box

• Remove the sealed bag containing the PBE hood from the stowage box
• Remove the PBE hood from the vacuum-sealed bag
• Shake the hood to loosen compressed material
• Slide both hands into the neck seal and don the PBE hood
• Pull the straps forward to start the chlorate candle
• Pull the straps rearward to adjust the oronasal mask against the face
• (If wearing any, adjust eyeglasses over the oronasal mask)
• Adjust hood material below the neck seal
F7.02_P10A: PBE activation

During the donning sequence, the chlorate candle is activated when the adjustment
straps are pulled forward. The oxygen generated by the chlorate candle will inflate
the hood, providing adequate initial breathing volume and accomplishing some
purging of the hood with excess gas generation.
If the chlorate cartridge fails to activate, the hood is still usable. The wearer will have
to stick fingers into the neck seal to allow a large lung inhalation and exhale strongly
into the oronasal mask in order to activate the system.
The speaking diaphragm allows communication while wearing the PBE.
IMPORTANT - HANDLING PRECAUTIONS AFTER USE:
Following use, after a sufficient cooling period, the expended PBE should be isolated
in an airtight container for disposal.
At the completion of the flight, the expended PBE must be delivered to maintenance
for authorized disposal.
Expended PBE hood contains un-reacted oxidizing material and strong alkali
materials. The PBE is intended for single use only and there are no reusable or
repairable components.

*Information
*The International Cospas-Sarsat System has ceased satellite processing of

121.5/243 MHz beacons on 1 February 2009. Only 406 MHz beacons are now
detected by the Cospas-Sarsat satellite system.
Cospas-Sarsat made the decision to cease satellite processing at 121.5/243 MHz in

response to guidance from the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and
the International Maritime Organization (IMO). These United Nations organizations
mandate safety requirements for aeroplane and maritime vessels and have
recognised the limitations of the 121.5/243 MHz beacons and the superior
capabilities of the 406 MHz alerting system.
The digital 406 MHz beacons offer many advantages over analog 121.5/243 MHz
beacons. With a 406 MHz beacon, the position of the distress can be relayed to
rescue services more quickly, more reliably and with greater accuracy.

C.C.O.M INTRODUCTION JAN 12
9.01.1 CREW RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
CRM was developed as a response to new insights into the causes of aeroplane
accidents. Many accidents were caused by the inability of crew to respond
appropriately to the situation in which they find themselves.
For example, inadequate communications between crew members and their parties
lead in turn to a loss of situational awareness, a breakdown in teamwork in the
aeroplane, and ultimately to a bad decision or series of decisions which resulted in
serious incident or a fatal accident.
CRM can therefore be defined as a management system, which makes optimum use
of all available resources – equipment, procedures and people – to promote safety
and enhance the efficiency of flight operations.
The successful conduct of a flight depends not only on a high standard of technical
knowledge and skills but also on good CRM skills. It starts with the necessity to use a
standard and correct terminology on board in order to allow a good coordination and
communication between the flight crew and the cabin crew.
9.01.2 PRE-FLIGHT BRIEFING
Based on the technical information provided in this manual, the pre-flight briefing
related to the operation of the ATR aeroplane is to be developed by operators as per
their standard operating procedures.
C.C.O.M CABIN PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS JAN 12
When the cabin crew member gets on board, the ground service buses located on
the FAP/CMS should be activated for electrical power distribution.

9.02.1 SAFETY PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS
The cabin crew member has the responsibility of the pre-flight check of aeroplane
systems and emergency equipments in order to make sure that the flight can be
performed with the maximum safety. On ATR, certain checks of aeroplane systems
and safety equipment will be done individually, others collectively with the flight crew
members.
9.02.2 AEROPLANE SYSTEMS PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS
9.02.2.1 INTERPHONE CALL TEST
The cabin crew will confirm the good operation of the interphone:

9.02.2.5 SMOKE DETECTORS

In the lavatory the cabin crew must check that nothing is obstructing the smoke
detector duct (small hole) located in the top corner of the partition on the right hand
side. The cabin crew must get inside the lavatory and close the door in order to
properly see the duct.
In the aft cargo area the cabin crew must check that nothing is obstructing the smoke
detector located on the ceiling.
The forward cargo area smoke detector will be checked by the flight crew.
The whole smoke detecting system functionality is tested from the flight crew
compartment only (See chapter 4.02 page 1)
9.02.2.6 LAVATORY AUTOMATIC FIRE EXTINGUISHER
Due to the difficulty to access the lavatory automatic fire extinguisher a daily check is
normally done by engineering.
According to Airlines procedures, the cabin crew could be asked to perform the pre-
flight check as well (Checking that the plugs on the extinguisher nozzles are still in
place).
In all cases cabin crew must always check that the waste bin flap cover is properly
closed (See chapter 4.03 page 1).
9.02.2.7 TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature of the aeroplane is managed by the flight crew from the flight crew
compartment overhead panel.
The cabin crew members do not have to perform a pre-flight check.
9.02.2.8 WATER INDICATOR CONTROL
Only the ground personnel can check the level of water (See location in Chapter 3.04
page 3).
The cabin crew members do not have to perform a pre-flight check.
9.02.3 SAFETY AND EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS

Before each flight the cabin crew member should pre-flight check all safety and
emergency equipment on board.
• MANUAL RELEASE TOOL

• OXYGEN BOTTLE and MASK
• PORTABLE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
• PROTECTIVE BREATHING EQUIPMENT
• FLASH LIGHT
• MEGAPHONE (If available)

If the cabin crew member is not satisfied with the pre-flight check of any of the
equipment it should be reported to the flight crew members.
Note: PROTECTIVE GLOVES and CRASH AXE being located in the flight crew
compartment, their pre-flight check falls under the flight crew responsibilities, unless
otherwise specified by operator’s standard operating procedures.
C.C.O.M PHASES OF THE FLIGHT JAN 12
F9.03_P1A: Phases of flight
The related flight phases are applicable to the cabin operation.
Phase 1: Preflight, Push Back, Taxiing.

This phase begins at the preflight check and ends at take off. The aeroplane might
require a pushback from the parking to a position where engines can safely be
started.
Phase 2: Take-off and climb

During this phase, the aeroplane takes off and climbs until reaching the cruising
altitude.
Phase 3: Cruising
This phase involves the part of the flight on which the aeroplane is steady at a flight
planned altitude and ends at the descent.
Phase 4: Descent and approach

This phase begins when the aeroplane starts descending and ends before the
landing phase.
Phase 5: Landing
This phase begins at the landing gear touchdown and ends when the aeroplane has
vacated the runway.
Phase 6: Taxiing and arrival.

This phase begins when the aeroplane has vacated the runway and ends when it
reaches the final stand.
The most critical phases of the flight are:

• Take off and climbing
• Landing
Statistically, 90% of unplanned evacuations were the results of events that occurred
during those phases.
9.03.1 STERILE FLIGHT CREW COMPARTMENT POLICY
The purpose of the sterile flight crew compartment policy is to allow the flight crew to
focus all their attention on their workload and is applicable during the critical phases
of the flight.
The cabin crew members should not try and contact the flight crew in any ways
unless an abnormal situation occurs (ex: fire or smoke in the cabin; abnormal noises
or vibrations…)
9.03.2 PHASE 1: PRE-FLIGHT, PUSH BACK and TAXIING
9.03.2.1 PRE-PASSENGER BOARDING
Once the cabin crew has completed his/her pre-flight safety, service duties and
checks, the captain will authorize to start passengers’ boarding.
The cabin must be in condition to receive the passengers safely (curtains folded and
secured, unobstructed access to doors and exits…).
On ATR 72, the cabin crew must ensure that the tail prop has been properly
positioned (See chapter 3.07 page 1).

T9.03_P2A: Pre-flight duties

9.03.2.2 BOARDING
During boarding, and for security reasons, the cabin crew member should check
each boarding card in order to ensure that the destination is in accordance with the
flight.
The cabin crew member should assist passengers in the cabin in order to facilitate
the flow of passengers. The cabin crew member should anticipate on the oversize
luggage carried on board.
a) Passenger seating
An operator shall establish procedures to ensure that passengers are seated where,
in the event that an emergency evacuation is required, they may best assist and not
hinder evacuation from the aeroplane.
Each passenger above 2 years old should have an individual seat equipped with a
seat belt. Infant travelling on an adult’s lap should be offered an “infant seat belt /
Loop-belt”, acceptable to the Authority.
For safety reasons, it is recommended not to seat the following passengers near an
emergency exit:
• Children
• Disabled passenger
• Pregnant or obese passenger
• Deportees
b) Smoking on board
The cabin crew should enforce the “No smoking” rules any time the “No smoking”
cabin sign is illuminated. Smoking regulations should be applied by everyone,
including all crew members.
c) Door closing
After the flight crew authorization, and only after all passengers are seated, the cabin
crew member can close the doors, ensuring that the tail prop has been removed and
properly stored (ATR 72 only).
Even though the Captain has the mean to check the status of cabin doors, cabin
crew should still confirm the proper closing and locking of the doors.
Once a door is closed, it is not allowed to be re-opened except on Captain’s
permission.
9.03.2.3 PASSENGER SAFETY BRIEFING

The contents of passenger safety briefing will be developed by the operators as part
of their standard operating procedures and as per their applicable requirements.
Such briefings will include for the ATR aeroplane, information and demonstration of

Passengers should be reminded of smoking regulations and use of safety belts.
9.03.7 PHASE 6: TAXIING AND ARRIVAL
After the aeroplane has come to a complete stop and engines are switched off, the
Captain should switch off the “Fasten seat belt” sign allowing passengers to stand
up.
a) Door Opening
After the flight crew authorization, the cabin crew member can open the doors.
On ATR 72 only, the cabin crew must ensure the tail prop has been put in place
before passengers’ disembarkation (See chapter 3.07 page 1)
b) Passenger disembarkation
Cabin crew members should control the flow of passengers and ensure that
everyone complies with the “No smoking” regulations.
c) Post flight security checks
Before leaving the aeroplane, cabin crew must perform a post flight security check in
order to ensure that no objects have been left on board. All accessible compartments
must be controlled.
d) Leaving the aeroplane
If the aeroplane is left unattended for an unlimited amount of time and as specified by
operators standard operating procedures, all access to the aeroplane should be
secured.
R2 service door opening from outside can be prevented by the cabin crew inserting
the safety pin into the door lever (See chapter 6.03 page 8).
C.C.O.M SPECIFIC PROCEDURES JAN 12

C.C.O.M CREW COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION JAN 12
Flight crew and cabin crew should function as one team with a common goal: flight
safety.
During operations and in their duties related to the safety of passengers and flight,
the cabin crew should at all time liaise with the flight crew members.
Any situation, feeling, behavior, observation that alerts the cabin crew members to a
possible threat to flight safety, must immediately be reported to the flight crew
members.
A cabin crew can play a crucial role by giving information to the flight crew in a timely
and accurate manner. A clear, concise and specific vocabulary needs to be used.
A cabin crew member should have communication, assertiveness and leadership

skills.
C.C.O.M TURBULENCE JAN 12
Turbulence is a stream of air in irregular motion that normally cannot be seen and
often occurs unexpectedly. It can be created by a number of different conditions such
as:
• Thunderstorms
• Mountainous areas
• Jet streams
• Sudden temperature changes
The severity of air turbulence can be categorized in:
• Light/Moderate turbulence
• Anticipated severe turbulence
• Un-anticipated severe turbulence
10.02.1 LIGHT / MODERATE TURBULENCE
This type of turbulence will be experienced on most flights.

After the “Fasten seat belt” sign is illuminated, a passenger announcement should be
made and the use of the lavatory be refrained.
Cabin crew should ensure that all passengers and cabin areas are properly secured
before reporting the cabin status to the flight crew. The service may, then, resume at
Captain’s discretion.
During turbulence, in the absence of any instructions from the flight crew, the senior
cabin crew member shall be entitled to discontinue non-safety related duties and
advise the flight crew of the level of turbulence being experienced and the need for
the fasten seat belt signs to be switched on. This should be followed by the cabin
crew securing the passenger cabin and other applicable areas.
10.02.2 SEVERE ANTICIPATED TURBULENCE
The flight crew will brief the cabin crew members of the expected turbulence and its
severity. The seat belt sign will be illuminated in order for the cabin crew to inform the
passengers, complete a thorough cabin securing and store any loose items (ex:
service trolleys). All services should be stopped.
After reporting the cabin status to the flight crew, each cabin crew will then secure
themselves in their respective stations.
Once the turbulence has passed and the “Fasten seat belt” sign has been switched
off, cabin crew will complete a cabin walk around to report the cabin state and any
possible injuries, administering first aid if and where necessary.
C.C.O.M TURBULENCE JAN 12
10.02.3 SEVERE UN-ANTICIPATED TURBULENCE
That type of turbulence appearing suddenly will not allow the flight crew to warn the
cabin crew in advance. Therefore, to alert the cabin of the severity of the turbulence
and potential danger, the flight crew will switch both cabin signs OFF/ON and make
a PA announcement.
At this stage, cabin crew should immediately seat down on the nearest available
seat and inform passengers to secure themselves.
Once the turbulence has passed and the “Fasten seat belt” sign has been switched
off, cabin crew will complete a cabin walk around to report the cabin state and any
possible injuries, administering first aid if and where necessary.

C.C.O.M FIRE JAN 12
An in-flight fire is probably the most serious in-flight emergency. It is imperative that
no time is lost dealing with the situation since any fire, no matter how small, may
rapidly become out of control, if not dealt with quickly.
10.03.1 CHEMISTRY OF FIRE
Fires start when a combustible material, in combination with a sufficient quantity of

oxygen is exposed to a source of heat or ambient temperature above the flash point.
This is commonly called the FIRE TRIANGLE.
Fire cannot exist without all of these 3 elements in place and in the right proportions.
Fire can be extinguished by removing any one of the elements of the fire triangle.

C.C.O.M FIRE JAN 12
10.03.2 CLASSES OF FIRE
Multiple classification systems exist, with different designations for the various
classes of fire. This manual refers to the American classification, the most commonly
used internationally.
Fires are classified in four types:
• Materials (or ordinary combustibles)

• Flammable liquids
• Electrical equipment
• Flammable metals
They are called respectively; class A, B, C, and D fires.
Class A and C are the most commonly encountered fires on board aeroplane.
It is important for cabin crew to select the appropriate fire extinguisher, according to
the class of fire.
• Class A: Materials (ex: Seat, paper, cloth, plastic)

Class A fires need to be cooled down. Therefore either a water or Halon*
extinguisher would be efficient on this type of fire.
*Note:
If the halon extinguisher is used on a class A fire, cabin crew will need to cool down
the area with any non alcoholic liquid (water, juice, tea).
• Class B: Flammable liquids

This type of fire can not be extinguished with water, since water would only expand
the fire. Halon extinguisher would be efficient on this type of fire.
• Class C: Electrical equipment

This type of fire can not be extinguished with water, since water would create an
electrical arc. Halon extinguisher would be efficient on this type of fire.
• Class D: Flammable metals. (Ex: sodium, magnesium, lithium and potassium.)

Special powder extinguishers are effective on class D fires. It can therefore not be
fought on board since the Halon fire extinguishers should never be used on class D
fires.
C.C.O.M FIRE JAN 12
10.03.3 FIRE PREVENTION
Cabin crew should maintain continuous vigilance and be alert to any indication of a
fire.
Some of the prevention duties of the cabin crew may be:
• The frequent monitoring of the lavatory

• The frequent monitoring of the cabin
• Ensuring everyone complies with the no smoking policy
• Using the electrical equipment, only for their intended purposes
Any indication of smoke or fire must be dealt with immediately.
10.03.4 FIRE FIGHTING TEAM ON ATR
Cabin crew member will have to deal with a fire situation alone if on ATR 42 or in a
team of 2 cabin crew on ATR 72.
Cabin crew member(s) will have to simultaneously hold the following roles:
• Fire fighter
• Communicator
• Back-up
• Crowd controller
The fire-fighter role
The fire fighter is the person that discovers the fire, taking the nearest appropriate fire
extinguisher and preparing to fight it.
The communicator role
The communicator informs the flight crew as soon as possible about:
• Fire location
• Fire source
• Severity/density of fire and/or smoke (colour / odour)
• Number of fire extinguishers used and remaining
The back-up role
The back-up needs to provide additional fire fighting equipment.

C.C.O.M FIRE JUN 13
The crowd controller role
The crowd controller main role will be to calm and reassure passengers making sure
panic is avoided. Passengers could be relocated according to the fire location.
Note: Only as a guideline and in the event of the presence of two crew members on
board, we recommend that the first crew member assumes simultaneously the fire
fighter and communicator role whereas the second cabin crew member will fill the
role of back up and crowd controller.
Cabin crew should remember that each situation varies and therefore they should
use their own judgement according to the situation encountered.
10.03.5 PASSENGER MANAGEMENT
After the fire has been dealt with, cabin crew may move passengers away from
firefighting area. If the amount of smoke or fumes is affecting the passengers,
encourage them to cover their mouth and nose and breathe near floor level. A better
option would be to distribute wet towels (if available).
10.03.6 FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Cabin overhead bin/Closet fire:
When a fire occurs in a cabin enclosed area, such as an overhead bin or closet,
always check the door panel for heat using the back of the hand before opening.
• Move passengers if required

• Touch/Feel with the back of the hand
• Open the overhead bin or closet slightly
• Look for flame (Do not attack smoke)
• Spray at eye level, discharge the fire extinguisher at the base of the fire in a
sweeping motion (only if the fire is visible)
• Close back the overhead bin or closet
• Monitor the overhead bin/Closet and around
R • Report to flight crew

Galley / Oven fires:
Oven fires are a common occurrence onboard an aeroplane. When an oven fire
occurs, the oven door should be kept closed to deprive the fire from oxygen.
The cabin crew action should be:
• To switch off electrical power - Hot jugs, oven if available – (Refer to chapter
3.03 p2)
• Stand by with an extinguisher and other relevant equipment (Ex: PBE)
• Monitor the situation
• Open the oven door slightly

Lavatory fires:
The fighting procedure will vary whether the lavatory door is cold or hot.
In order to check it and after the cabin crew member has equipped appropriately, he
should check the door lavatory for heat using the back of his hand.
Cold lavatory door

• Open the lavatory door with caution
• Locate the source of fire
• Discharge the extinguisher at the base of fire
• Monitor
Hot lavatory door

• Don relevant protection (PBE, Gloves)
• Use the lavatory door panel as protection against smoke and heat and open
the lavatory door slightly, using the lavatory door panel as a protective shield
against smoke and heat
• Discharge the halon extinguisher fully
• Close the lavatory door
• Open the lavatory door panel

C.C.O.M FIRE JUN 13
Hidden areas:
“Hidden Areas” are areas which are not readily accessible to the crew; such as
sidewall panels, floors, bulkheads, ventilation grids and ceiling panels.
If the cabin crew suspects a fire in a hidden area, he should try to locate a “hot spot”
sweeping the back of the hand along the panel to find the hottest area.
It may be necessary to remove panels to access the area, or to make a hole in a
panel large enough to insert the extinguisher nozzle.
Aft cargo compartment:
Access to the aft compartment being uneasy, locating the source of fire may be
difficult. Cabin crew should then:
R • If necessary, donning the Protective Breathing Equipment (PBEs)

• Close the rear cargo compartment with the fire curtain or door (if available)
• Couple the halon extinguisher to the extinguisher connector
• Discharge fully the halon extinguisher through the connector
• Monitor

It is important that cabin crew are aware of any smoke indications and report it to the
flight crew members immediately. The source of smoke should be immediately
identified in order to take the appropriate actions.
R Note: Cabin crew should not discharge the fire extinguisher randomly into an
R enclosed area if the source of fire has not been located.
Materials that are used in the cabin release toxic fumes when smouldering.
R The cabin crew action should be:

• Switch off the DC & ACW GND service bus located on the FAP (Flight
Attendant Panel) refer to chapter 1.09 p1&2
• Report to flight crew member “Cabin smoke”
The cabin crew must protect themselves as well as the flight crew and passengers
from the negative effects and consequences of smoke inhalation by:
• Donning the Protective Breathing Equipment (PBEs)

C.C.O.M DECOMPRESSION JAN 12
A decompression is a loss of the cabin pressure. It can occur due to a pressurization

system malfunction or damage to the aeroplane that causes a breach in the pressure
hull structure.
The loss of pressurization can be slow, in case of a small air leak, while a rapid or
explosive decompression occurs suddenly, usually within a few seconds.
10.04.1 SLOW DECOMPRESSION
Slow decompression may not always be obvious. The flight crew members might be
the first alerted when the altitude warning system detects a cabin altitude reaching
10.000 ft
In some cases, an unusual noise, such as a hissing sound around the cabin area,
may be an indication of a slow decompression. One of the first physiological
indications may be ear discomfort or “popping”, joint pain, or stomach pain due to gas
expansion.
When the cabin crew suspects a slow decompression, the flight crew members
should be notified immediately.
10.04.2 RAPID OR EXPLOSIVE DECOMPRESSION
Rapid/explosive decompression results in a sudden loss in cabin pressure and can

be recognized by the following signs:
Objective signs Subjective signs
• Loud bang • Decrease in temperature (cold)

• Fog or mist • Ear distress
• Rush of air outside • Difficulty in breathing/speaking
• Dust
• Debris flying around
T10.04_P1A: Decompression signs

10.04.3 HYPOXIA
One of the greatest dangers during decompression is hypoxia. Hypoxia which is the
lack of oxygen can significantly reduce the crew members’ ability to perform and lead
to errors.
It is necessary to remember that each person may not react in the same way, and
that symptoms of hypoxia may manifest themselves differently in each individual.
Some of these symptoms become more or less pronounced with the lack of oxygen,
for example:
• Impaired vision
• Impaired judgment
• Impaired motor skills
• Slurred speech
• Memory loss
• Difficulty in concentrating
If oxygen is not administered immediately in hypoxia cases, occupants may become

incapacitated and lose consciousness in a very short time.
10.04.4 TIME OF USEFUL CONSCIOUSNESS
The time of useful consciousness (TUC) refers to the time available to individuals to
perform their tasks, after they have been deprived of oxygen, but are still aware of
their environment and capable of controlling their actions.
The time of useful consciousness is different for each individual and depends on the
altitude, the individual’s state of health and the amount of activity.
TIME OF USEFUL CONSCIOUSNESS
Altitude Moderate activity Sitting quietly

ATR maximum 22 000ft 5 minutes 10 minutes
operating altitude 25 000ft 2 minutes 3 minutes
28 000ft 1 minute 1.5 minutes
30 000ft 45 seconds 1.25 minutes
35 000ft 30 seconds 45 seconds
40 000ft 18 seconds 30 seconds
T10.04_P3A: Time of Useful Consciousness
Some other factors can contribute to reducing the time of useful consciousness:
• Fatigue
• Physical effort
• Alcohol
• Age
10.04.5 INITIAL CREW PROCEDURES
In case of decompression the first action to be performed by the cabin crew is to sit
down, secure themselves and get on oxygen using their respective portable bottles
and masks (See chapter 4.05 p 4). The flight crew will make an emergency descent
trying to reach the safe altitude of 10000 feet.
10.04.6 POST DECOMPRESSION PROCEDURES
When the emergency descent has been completed and a safe altitude has been
reached, the flight crew should notify the cabin crew members that it is safe to walk
around the aeroplane.
Cabin crew members should remain on oxygen using their respective portable
oxygen bottles and masks. This is to prevent any symptoms of hypoxia during the
cabin walk around.
Cabin crew members should then:
• Ensure the flight crew members are on oxygen

• Ensure the PAX SUPPLY command has been activated
• Check on other cabin crew
• Check the lavatory
• Provide oxygen to passengers who could need
Connect spare masks to outlets on ATR 200/300 series or,

Open Oxygen modules with MRT and pull on the masks on ATR 500/600
series
• Check passengers for any injuries and provide first aid if required
• Check for cabin damage
• Report the cabin status to the flight crew members
• Follow Captain’s directives

• First aid kit
Note: In a case when a cabin crew happens to be inside the flight crew
compartment when a rapid decompression situation arises, he/she could use the
observer’s Quick Donning Mask if necessary.
C.C.O.M FLIGHT CREW INCAPACITATION JAN 12
Crew member incapacitation is defined as any condition which affects the health of a
crew member during the flight phase and which decreases his skill for the assigned
tasks.
Incapacitation is a real air safety hazard, which occurs more often than many of the
other emergencies. Incapacitation can occur in many forms varying from obvious
sudden death to subtle, partial loss of function. It occurs in all age groups and during
all phases of flight and may not be preceded by any warning.
10.05.1 FLIGHT CREW CALL
The healthy pilot must ensure that the incapacitated pilot cannot interfere with the
aeroplane control. He must call a cabin crew over the PA to lock the incapacitated
pilot on his flight crew seat. If the flight crew compartment door is locked, the cabin
crew member will apply the relevant procedure to unlock the system and provide first
aid.
On the flight crew call, any cabin crew must proceed to the flight crew compartment.
10.05.2 CABIN CREW PROCEDURE
• Place the incapacitated pilot’s arms across his chest and secure them with
the shoulder harness
• Manually lock the shoulder harness
• Push back and recline the seat completely
• Administer first aid (if required)
• Assist the operating pilot as directed (Check-list reading back)
C.C.O.M EMERGENCY EVACUATION JAN 12
10.06.1 EMERGENCY EVACUATION GENERAL INFORMATION
Emergency evacuations can be classified into two different types:
1. UNPLANNED EMERGENCY = NO TIME TO PREPARE

A sudden problem with the aeroplane might lead to an emergency evacuation. (Ex:
Fire on the ground, rejected take off, skidding off the runway, bomb on board…)
2. PLANNED EMERGENCY = MORE OR LESS TIME TO PREPARE

A major problem with the aeroplane in-flight might lead to an emergency landing or
ditching, followed with an emergency evacuation. The decision to evacuate the
aeroplane after the forced landing can already be taken by the flight crew while still in
the air, depending on the situation (Ex: Fire, structural damage, bomb…).
Unplanned or planned emergency situations can apply to both land-landing and

ditching.
In all cases, the primary responsibility of the cabin crew during an evacuation is to
direct passengers to evacuate the aeroplane using all the usable exits.
The aim of an evacuation is to ensure that passengers and crew members leave the
aeroplane as rapidly and as safely as possible. Cabin crew must therefore be
assertive and firm.
Many factors contribute to the successful evacuation of the aeroplane:
• The procedural knowledge of the cabin crew

• The environment inside and outside of the aeroplane
• The passengers’ behavior, age, level of fitness and motivation
• The aeroplane configuration and the layout of the cabin
• The time available for preparation if planned emergency
10.06.2 UNPLANNED EMERGENCY EVACUATION
The information in this chapter 10.06.2 is valid for both ground evacuation and
ditching.
Statistically, 90% of unplanned evacuations were the result of event that occurred
during taxi, takeoff and landing phases of the flight.
10.06.2.1 PASSENGER SAFETY BRIEFING
(See chapter Normal procedures 9.03 page 4 - Passenger safety briefing)

10.06.2.2 SILENT REVIEW
(See chapter Normal procedures 9.03 page 5 - Cabin securing –b) cabin ready)
10.06.2.3 EVACUATION PROCESS
In case of an evacuation, the drill to apply can be remembered as “EOEC”:
• Evaluate
Cabin crew members must evaluate the inside and outside conditions in order to
determine if potential hazard might be considered (Fire, smoke, water…)
• Operate
Operation of the appropriate exit
• Evacuate
Evacuation position to take and commands to shout at passengers
• Congregate
Congregation of passengers and crew upwind (If possible) and at least 200 metres
away from the aeroplane
10.06.2.4 EVACUATION INITIATIVE
It is after the aeroplane has come to a complete stop and the engines are both turned
off that the flight crew member will inform the cabin crew of their intention to evacuate
should the situation requires so.
A command to stand by at their respective station will be given to the cabin crew over
the PA.
Cabin crew must then anticipate a possible evacuation command and start checking
if the outside conditions are safe, areas are clear of fire, smoke, obstacles and
debris.
Cabin crew will then wait to receive further instructions from the flight crew.
In most cases, the decision to evacuate is made by the flight crew.
However, it may be necessary for the cabin crew to initiate an evacuation, when the
situation is considered catastrophic; meaning there is an immediate danger to the
aeroplane occupants or if no other options than an evacuation can be considered.
• Dense smoke or fire in the cabin

• Severe structural damage
• Emergency landing on water
• No communication from the flight deck
If the cabin crew considers that an evacuation is necessary, they must still attempt to
contact the flight crew in order to inform them of the situation.
10.06.2.5 EVACUATION COMMANDS
After the evacuation order has been received or initiated, cabin crew should open the
exits, only if it is safe to do so. It is essential that passengers evacuate the aeroplane
immediately.
The cabin crew members will instruct passengers with clear, loud and positive
commands to:
• OPEN SEAT BELTS

• LEAVE EVERYTHING BEHIND
• COME THIS WAY or GO THAT WAY
Verbal instructions will also be enforced with the use of appropriate gestures to call
the passengers.
Cabin crew must monitor the evacuation and maintain an even flow of passengers
from each exit to avoid congestion in the cabin.
Note:
In the event of an planned emergency (Ex: rejected take-off, skidding off the
runway…) the “brace” command may come from the flight crew members. Cabin
crew will instruct passengers to assume a brace position by shouting continuously
and until the aeroplane came to a complete stop:
“HEADS DOWN”, “BEND DOWN”
10.06.2.6 FACTORS AFFECTING A SUCCESSFUL EVACUATION
• Cabin crew assertiveness

• Crowd control and flow management
• Unusable or congested exit
• Cabin configuration
10.06.2.7 POST EVACUATION RESPONSIBILITIES
After all passengers have evacuated the aeroplane, cabin crew need to check the
cabin and flight crew compartment area before evacuating themselves, taking the
emergency equipment from the aeroplane.
Once outside the aeroplane, Crew members remain responsible for the passengers,
until they are relieved by the emergency services or by the authorities.
To ensure passengers safety:
• Direct passengers upwind and away from the aeroplane

• Congregate passengers together
• Provide first aid, if necessary
• Make a headcount, if possible

• ELT (if available)
10.06.3 PLANNED EMERGENCY EVACUATION
The information in this chapter 10.06.3 is valid for both ground evacuation and
ditching.
A planned evacuation can be defined as a situation that enables the cabin crew to
review procedure, and to inform and prepare passengers for an emergency landing
or ditching. The cabin crew provides passengers with brace instructions, guidance on
exit usage, and information on how and when exits should be operated.
10.06.3.1 “N.I.T.S” BRIEFING
In case of a planned emergency, the flight crew would ask the senior cabin crew to
report to the flight crew compartment.
The flight crew members will brief the senior cabin crew face to face in a clear,
precise and concise manner about the:
• Nature of the problem

• Intention (landing or ditching)
• Time available to prepare the cabin
• Specific information/Special instruction (e.g. Not to use the LHS exits)
The senior cabin crew will repeat back the information received in order to confirm
the good understanding.
After returning into the cabin, the senior cabin crew will brief the other(s) cabin crew
member(s) and start the cabin preparation.
10.06.3.2 CABIN PREPARATION
Public announcement
An emergency PA should be made to inform the passengers of the situation and

obtain their complete attention (PA might vary according to different operators).
When reading the announcement, the cabin crew should speak slowly and distinctly.
Cabin crew will coordinate some of the following demonstrations with the
announcement:
• Exits to use
• Brace positions to adopt
Cabin preparation
After the passenger has been briefed over the PA, cabin crew should ensure that the
cabin is properly secured with:
• Seat belts fastened

• Seat backs in the upright position
• Tray tables closed and latched
• Armrests down
• Hand baggage stowed in the proper compartment
• Overhead compartments closed
• Exits and aisles clear of all obstructions
• Window blinds up (If available)
• Service items cleared
• Cabin doors and curtains opened and secured
• Lavatory vacated and locked
• Galley equipment secured
• Rear cargo compartment secured with safety net
• Video screens up (if applicable)
Additionally, high-heeled shoes and sharp objects must be removed (Ex: false teeth,
eyeglasses, neck ties, pens…) since they may cause injuries during impact and/or
during the evacuation process.
Cabin crew should also remove items such as pens, badges and wing pins from their
uniforms.
Able Bodied Passengers (ABPs)
The international Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) defines Able-Bodied Passengers

as “passengers selected by crew members to assist in managing emergency
situations if and as required”.
An ABP must speak the same language as the crew members and the person must
be mentally and physically capable, since he/she is selected to assist crew or take
over duties in case of crew member’s incapacitation or death.
The ideal candidates would be:
• Deadheading crew members (if any)

• Military, police, fire-brigade personnel, medical personnel
Otherwise cabin crew should select passengers with the following criteria:
• Travelling alone
• Willing to help
• Understanding instructions
ABPs should be:
• Briefed to assist crew on how to operate an exit

• Assigned to assist special needs passengers (Ex: passengers with reduced
mobility, children, elderly…)
10.06.3.3 BRACING POSITION
The brace position or crash position has two functions:
• To reduce the extent of body movement

• To protect a head/neck hit on a hard surface
Reviewing the brace position during the emergency cabin preparation will help to
ensure that passengers are in the correct brace position for landing.
The brace position must be adapted according to the seat facing forward or
backward, with a safety belt or shoulder harness (crew member seats only).
It must also be adapted if passengers are pregnant, traveling with infants or obese.
Passenger seats facing forward
• Seat belt worn as low and tight as possible

• Feet placed flat on the floor
• DO NOT interlock fingers
• Upper body bends forward as far as possible,
with the chest close to the knees
Passenger seats facing afterward

• Passenger’s backs pressed into the seat
• Head and back should press against the backseat
F10.06_P9A: Passengers bracing positions

Passengers with restrictive flexibility

• Head pressing against the front backseat
Passengers with infant

• Head pressing against the front backseat
• One hand holding the baby chest
• The other hand holding the head
F10.06_P10A: Passengers bracing positions (Continued)

Cabin crew brace positions
Crew seat facing forward Crew seat facing aftward
F10.06_P11A: Cabin crew bracing positions
Passengers and cabin crew must remain in the brace position until the aeroplane
comes to a complete stop. Cabin crew should expect more than one impact.
Note: AVAILABLE PREPARATION TIME
In case of shortage of time, all efforts should be made to ensure that all stages of
preparation (NITS briefing, cabin and passengers preparation) are still completed
and in the same order.
10.06.3.4 CREW COMMANDS
• At – 2 min. (approximately 2000 Ft) above ground level the flight crew will
inform the cabin crew members over the PA.
Cabin crew should then secure themselves at their respective station and wait
for the next command.
• At – 30 sec. (approximately 500 Ft) above ground level the flight crew will give
the command over the PA to brace. Cabin crew will therefore take the
appropriate brace position and command passengers to brace.
If the aeroplane landed away from an airport, cabin crew will then apply the survival
procedures relevant to the region.

10.06.4 EMERGENCY EVACUATION ON WATER (DITCHING)
10.06.4.1 CABIN PREPARATION DITCHING
The definition of ditching is “an emergency landing on water”.
Preparing the cabin for a ditching is similar to preparing the cabin for a ground
evacuation, except for a few differences:
An emergency ditching PA should be made to inform the passengers of the situation.

Cabin crew will coordinate the requested demonstrations with the announcement:
exits, brace positions and life jackets.
Life jackets demonstration
Crew members should simultaneously don their own life jacket when demonstrating
how to use the life jackets. Importance should be made on the fact that life jacket
should NOT be inflated inside the aeroplane.
Once the demonstration is completed, assist passengers in putting on and securing

their life jackets. Adult life jacket adapted onto children will be inflated during cabin
preparation, away from the passengers’ sight.
10.06.4.2 EVACUATION PROCESS DITCHING
There maybe more than one impact on water in a ditching. Cabin crew should
therefore ensure that everyone remains in their “brace” position until the aeroplane
came to a complete stop.
In a ditching situation, it will always be necessary for everyone to evacuate the
aeroplane. Therefore the cabin crew can initiate the evacuation after making sure
that the engines are turned off.
IMPORTANT: The aeroplane position on water will determine the primary choice
of exit.
Before opening the emergency exits, crew should assess the outside conditions.
Given its wings position and design, the ATR aeroplane should on water, lean on
one side or the other. The water level will determine whether the exit is usable or
not. Should too much water penetrate inside the aeroplane after opening an exit it
could be advisable to close back this exit (if possible) and use the opposite one (or
the next one up or down the cabin depending on the situation).
Passengers must be ordered to inflate their life jackets only when exiting the
aeroplane.
10.06.4.3 POST DITCHING
Before leaving the aeroplane, the cabin crew members check the cabin to ensure
that all passengers and crew have evacuated. Cabin crew will remove the assigned
emergency equipment from the aeroplane, inflate their life Jacket and evacuate the
aeroplane.
