Notify the cabin crew of the nature of emergency encountered and state intention. Specify the available time.

Notify ATC of the nature of emergency encountered and state intention. In the event of no ATC contact select transponder code A77 or transmit the distress message on one of

the following frequences, (VHF) 121.5 MHZ or (HF) 2.182 KHZ.

To avoid nuisance warning.

The outflow valve, emergency ram air inlet, skin air outlet valve and pack flow control valves close.

Outflow valve would remain open if MODE SEL were not at AUTO.

Batteries are left ON until leaving the A/C to ensure cabin communications. Switching the batteries off stops the CVR and prevents tape erasure.

Note : Keep batteries on for at least 10 seconds after switching ENG MASTER to OFF to allow complete

closure of LP valves.

DITCHING DITCHING


EVACUATION ON WATER

CABIN ATTENDANT RESPONSIBLE FOR FORWARD AND AFT DOORS

Note : Prior to a ditching, the SURVIVAL KIT must be removed from its

overhead bin and placed on the floor next to the slide-raft container. The survival kit

must now be connected to the girt extension of the slide-raft. The survival kit

lanyard is white and stowed at the hinge side (or forward) girt bar handle. Pull the

lanyard free of the girt bar and attach it to the survival kit.

- Deploy the slide-raft in the same manner as for land deployment.

- Pull manual inflation handle.

Do not wait for automatic inflation.

• If water level close to door sill

Slide-raft is inflated on the water.

- Leave slide-raft attached to cabin floor.

- Put survival kit in slide-raft.

- Board passengers.

- Last crew member separate slide-raft from door sill.

- Cut mooring line.

• If water level too far from door sill

- Disconnect slide-raft from door sill.

Slide-raft remains tied to the aircraft by a 20 feet mooring line.

- Throw survival kit overboard.

- Hold mooring line to keep the slide-raft close to the exit.

- Evacuate passengers into the slide-raft.

- Crew members board slide-raft last.

- Cut mooring line.

- Retrieve survival kit attached via the lanyard to the slide-raft.

Note : As the capacity of the four slide-rafts is large enough to accommodate all

persons on board, priority of evacuation should be given to the doors equipped with

slide-rafts. If the overwing exits are opened the life lines should be attached

between the exit frame and the wing surface to protect the passengers standing on

the wing.

BOMB ON BOARD BOMB ON BOARD

Let’s now see how to deal with a bomb on board. Let’s now see how to deal with a bomb on board.


BOMB ON BOARD

COCKPIT PROCEDURES

- CABIN CREW…………………………………………………………….………..NOTIFY

- LDG ELEV SELECTOR……………………………………………………….SET 7800 FT

It is recommended that the cabin pressure is kept to about 1 PSI to help ensure that the

blast goes outward if the bomb explodes. A landing elevation of 7800 feet correspond to a

P of about 1 PSI at FL100.

- FUEL RESERVES…………………………………………………...………..DETERMINE

Consider fuel consumption for flight in conf 1 with landing gear down is about 2.1 times

that in clean configuration.

- NEXT SUITABLE AIRPORT……………………………...…………………DETERMINE

- FCU SPEED SELECTION KNOB…………………………………………………….PULL

Keep the present speed during the descent in order to reduce the consequences of possible

structural damage if the bomb explodes.

- DESCENT TO FL 100 OR MEA or minimum obstacle clearance altitude.……...INITIATE

• When at FL 100 or MEA : - ADJUST P TO 1 PSI WITH THE LDG ELEV SELECTOR

Increasing the landing field elevation decrease the P.

Decreasing the landing field elevation increase the P.

- GALLEY/COMMERCIAL ( * )………………………………………………………...OFF

- FLAPS (fuel permitting)………………………………………………..AT LEAST CONF 1

For landing use normal configuration.

- LANDING GEAR (fuel permitting except for flight over the sea)…………………..DOWN

• During descent : Set the landing field elevation 2500 feet each cleared altitude.

Before landing, reset the landing field elevation to the true value.

• When aircraft on ground and stopped : - EVACUATION……………………………………………………………..……..INITIATE

Do not use the cabin doors in the vicinity of the bomb.



BOMB ON BOARD (CONT’D)

CABIN PROCEDURES

CAUTION

The least risk bomb location for aircraft structure and systems is CENTER OF THE RH AFT

CABIN DOOR.

- BOMB……………………….………..SECURE AGAINST SLIPPING, AVOID SHOCKS

Secure in the attitude found and do not lift before having checked for an anti-lift ignition

device.

- PASSENGERS………………………...……………………..LEAD AWAY FROM BOMB

- BOMB……………………………………..…………….CHECK NO ANTI-LIFT DEVICE

To check for an anti-lift switch or ever, slide a string or stiff card, such as the emergency

information card under the bomb without disturbing the bomb.

If the string or card cannot be slipped under the bomb it may indicate that an anti-lift

switch or lever is present.

If a card is used and can be slid under the bomb leave it under the bomb and move together

with the bomb. If it is indicated that an anti-lift device is present, it may be possible to move

the bomb together with the surface on which the bomb is located, such as a shelf or seat

cushion.

If it is not possible to move the bomb then it should be surrounded with wetted materials and

other blast attenuation material such as seat cushion and soft carry-on baggage. Move

personnel as far from the bomb location as possible.

• If bomb can be moved : PLACE THE BOMB AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO THE CENTER OF THE RH AFT

CABIN DOOR.

- PASSENGERS……………………………………………………………..MOVE/ADVISE

Move passengers at least 4 seat rows away from the least risk bomb location (RH aft cabin

door). If other seats are full these passengers should sit on the floor in protected areas

toward the front of the aircraft.

Passengers near bomb should protect their heads with pillows, blankets etc and sit in the

brace position.

All passengers must remain seated with seats belts on and if possible head below the top of

the head rest.


BOMB ON BOARD (CONT’D)

- LEAST RISK BOMB LOCATION (LRBL)……...………...……PREPARE Build up a platform of solid baggage against the door up to about 25cm (10in) below the

middle of the door.

On top of this build up at least 25cm (10in) of wetted material such as blankets and pillows.

- BOMB…………...………………………….…………….MOVE TO LRBL Carefully carry in the attitude found and place on top of the wetted material in the same

attitude and as close to the door structure as possible.

- LEAST RISK BOMB LOCATION……………………………COMPLETE Build up at least 25cm (10in) of wetted material around the sides and on top of the bomb.

DO NOT PLACE ANYTHING BETWEEN THE BOMB AND THE DOOR AND MINIMIZE

AIRSPACE AROUND THE BOMB.

The idea is to build up a protective surrounding of the bomb so that the explosive force is

directed in the only non protected area into the door structure.

Fill the area around the bomb with seat cushions and other soft material such as hand

baggage up to the cabin ceiling, compressing as much as possible. The more material

stacked around the bomb, the less damage will be.

USE ONLY SOFT MATERIAL. AVOID ANY METAL OBJECTS WHICH COULD

BECOME DANGEROUS PROJECTILES.

- EVACUATION………………………………….……………….EXECUTE Do not use cabin doors in the vicinity of the bomb for disembarkation of passengers.

Use all available airport facilities to disembark without delay. If it is necessary to use

escape slide do not use the right hand side.


LAVATORY SMOKE WARNINGS LAVATORY SMOKE WARNINGS

Let’s finish this module with the lavatory smoke detection and the fire fighting associated procedures.

Let’s finish this module with the lavatory smoke detection and the fire fighting associated procedures.


If smoke in a lavatory is detected, warning signals are transmitted: - In the cockpit: • the MASTER WARN light starts to flash,

• a repetitive aural signal sounds, • and, on the ECAM page, the origin of the smoke warning is indicated,

- in the cabin: • a triple chime is broadcast every 30 seconds, • on all AIPs, the red light flashes and the affected lavatory is indicated in clear text,

• the amber light of the closest ACP flashes, • the call light outside the affected lavatory wall flashes amber,

• and on the FAP, the SMOKE LAV button turns red.

EWD



As soon as the affected lavatory is identified, the warnings in the cabin should be turned off. This can be done by pressing the RESET button on the FAP. This will extinguish all the signs exept the red light of the SMOKE LAV button on the FAP. It extinguishes automatically as soon

as the smoke is cleared in the lavatory. Cabin crew must inform the cockpit about the incident and keep continuous contact until the

situation is back to safe and normal.

SMOKE LAVATORY SMOKE

Crew awareness. Maintain contact with cabin crew to follow status of fire and consider emergency descent

and smoke removal procedures.

SMOKE REMOVAL

• The smoke removal procedure should be applied in case of dense smoke or toxic fumes or if

smoke generation cannot be stopped.

• In case of smoke in cabin it is necessary to make a PA announcement to minimize

apprehension.

- SEAT BELTS/NO SMOKING……………………...…………….………..ON

- CAB FANS………………………………………………...……...……….OFF Cabin fans are selected off to avoid recirculation of contaminated air.

- PACK FLOW…………………………………………………………………...…………….HI

HI is selected to provide maximum airflow from packs.

Do not shut down air conditioning packs or reduce ventilation in an attempt to smother fire.

Do not deploy oxygen masks.

- LDG ELEV……………………………………………….....…10000 FT/MEA

- DESCENT (FL 100 or MEA)…………………….…………...…….INITIATE Since the most effective means for smoke removal is use of RAM AIR, descent is initiated to FL

100 or MEA while cabin altitude is increased to 10000 FT or MEA.

The increase of cabin altitude also reduces, at least temporarily the smoke concentration.

There is no pax oxygen requirement below FL 140.

- ATC………………………………………………………...……...….NOTIFY

• When P 1 PSI or below:

- RAM AIR………………………………………………………...………ON • At FL 100 or MEA opening of the RAM AIR valve is possible, when P is 1 psi or below.

• If cockpit window opening required : Unless the smoke source is in the cockpit, do not open cockpit windows to

evacuate the smoke.

- MAX SPD…………………………………...……….…..20 KT

- HEADSETS……………………………….…...……………ON
