the aircraft during the takeoff roll Cabin crew will recognise a rejected takeoff by the sudden deceleration of the aircraft after the takeoff has commenced When rejecting a takeoff the aircraft may or may not remain on the paved surface Cabin crew must remain in their seats until the aircraft has come to a complete stop the purser shall then make the following PA announcement: “Passengers remain seated and await further instructions” Cabin crew must proceed to their evacuation stations and check outside conditions If any crew member observes smoke or fire outside or inside the cabin he/she must immediately alert the Captain, the purser and other cabin crew Additionally the purser shall enter the cockpit and advise the captain of the situation in the cabin The captain shall assess the information provided and will be responsible for the evacuation PA announcement 4.22.2 EVACUATION Follow the Unprepared Landing/Evacuation Procedures For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW

assistance The Pilot-in-control will call the Purser to the cockpit The assistance of a medically qualified passenger may have to be requested (a) Pilot-in-control – Gives alert: "Cockpit speaking, Purser required in the cockpit." – Briefs the Purser "incapacitated pilot" and gives instructions (b) The purser [or designated Cabin Crew member] – Pull incapacitated pilot upright against the seat back – Check that the seatbelt and shoulder harness are secured and locked – Lower and move seat rearward, sliding it away from the controls – Fully recline the seat – Place the incapacitated pilot's wrists under the shoulder harness to prevent sudden grabbing for the controls when consciousness starts to return – If oxygen is required, loosen collar and necktie, place the mask over the pilot's face, and administer – The Pilot-in-control may require the Cabin Crew member to read out the drills check list from the appropriate card The Pilot-in-control will show which drill section is to be read and what hand signals are to be used • Thumbs up: commence reading checklist from nominated item • Open hand: stop immediately; recommence reading at the point of interruption when the 'thumbs-up' signal is given The Cabin Crew member will read the first item on the check list and wait for the Pilot's signal, continuing in this way until the list has been read – When cleared by the Pilot-in-control, this Cabin Crew member will return to normal duties For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 4.23/P2 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 11 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES 4.23.2 20/4/2015 CABIN CREW INCAPACITATION – Pull the incapacitated cabin crew upright against the seat back, check that his/her seatbelt is secure and that the shoulder harness is engaged and locked; – The purser and the captain must be informed the situation of ill or incapacitated cabin crew; – Loosen collar and necktie, as required; – If necessary, administer oxygen from the portable oxygen bottles – Under some circumstances and with appropriate assistance the incapacitated cabin crew should be removed from his/her seat to the crew rest (if available) But ensure that he/she must be pulled back to his/her seat with the seatbelt is secure and the shoulder harness is engaged and locked when landing; – The assistance of any medically qualified passenger may also be requested For training purposes only

5.1/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER SURVIVAL 5.1 Rev 06 28/09/2004 GENERAL The use of modern aircraft equipment and good search and rescue procedures ensures that survivors of a forced landing or ditching should not have long to wait before being rescued There are, however, basic techniques for survival with which all Crew members must be familiar For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.2/P1 TRAINING MANUAL 5.2 CHAPTER Rev 06 SURVIVAL 28/09/2004 PRINCIPLES OF SURVIVAL Survival depends on two basic principles: - The will to survive: This is not automatic Some people have a greater survival instinct than others Discomfort and despair may cause some to give up more easily than others - Knowledge of survival techniques: Knowledge of survival equipment and techniques increases confidence When passengers see that they are in the care of a well-trained and knowledgeable crew, panic and despair will be replaced by confidence and cooperation For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.3/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER SURVIVAL 5.3 Rev 06 28/09/2004 PRIORITIES 5.3.1 PROTECTION In order to function properly, the human body must be protected against extremes of heat or cold, and the adverse effects of injury and shock Injured survivors – passengers and Crew – require immediate attention 5.3.2 LOCATION Identify the location of the landing or ditching by setting up signaling aids and emergency transmitters to facilitate search and rescue operations Stay in the vicinity of the aircraft unless there are compelling reasons for doing otherwise 5.3.3 WATER Assemble and control all immediate water sources from the aircraft if this is possible Explore other possible sources in the vicinity At sea, check the raft’s survival kit for potable water Do not drink sea water Make preparations to collect rain water The human body can survive without water for as long as days in a very hot climate, and 11 days in a cold climate, provided that there is no exertion Sweating causes dehydration 5.3.4 FOOD Assemble and control all immediate food sources from the aircraft if this is possible Food requires water to aid digestion Seafood, being salty, requires more water and should not be eaten unless potable water is available Then human body can survive weeks without food No permanent ill effects are likely after two or three weeks, and some have survived longer For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.4/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 07 05/11/2007 SURVIVAL 5.4 SURVIVAL ON LAND 5.4.1 IMMEDIATE ACTION – AFTER EVACUATION Assemble all survivors in a safe, upwind location Administer first-aid to the injured Erect shelters 5.4.2 SUBSEQUENT ACTION Set up transmitter [radio beacon] and assemble signal flares and signal mirrors If the aircraft remains intact, and when risk of fire has passed, re-enter to remove equipment and supplies Detach slide rafts to be used as protection Remove and store survival kits Note: Alternative uses for aircraft equipment in a survival situation on land: – Slide/rafts – for additional protection – Life vests – for water storage [cut off inflation tube to facilitate filling] – for pillows – Aircraft interior panels and carpets – for laying out to form SOS signal – Galley containers [coffee pots, etc.] – for collecting water – Seatbelts – for splinting broken limbs – Seat cushions – for general comfort For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.5/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 07 05/11/2007 SURVIVAL 5.5 SURVIVAL AT SEA 5.5.1 IMMEDIATE ACTION AFTER EVACUATION Cut the mooring line and move away from the aircraft Do not attempt to re-enter it Assemble slide/rafts and attach them together [using the sea anchor if necessary to move the rafts] Deploy the emergency transmitter Deploy the sea anchor Distribute sea sickness tablets to passengers and Crew 5.5.2 SUBSEQUENT ACTION (a) In a hot climate: Erect raft canopy to prevent sunburn and body fluid loss Keep entrances open to create a through draught (b) In a cold climate: Erect the raft canopy and close entrances Remove wet clothing Keep warm by bailing out water 5.5.3 GENERAL PROCEDURES AFTER DITCHING Passengers evacuating directly into the water need to be brought into the rafts A rescue line is provided to pull them towards the raft To get an injured or exhausted survivor out of the water, turn him/her with the back to the raft; place your arms under the armpits and around the chest, and pull aboard Use the pitching of the raft to assist Injured survivors should be made as comfortable as possible in the raft Unconscious or very weak passengers must have the head elevated to prevent drowning in cases where there is water on the raft floor The raft’s survival kit contains a limited first aid supply Stow and secure all equipment in the raft, preferably in the center, with signaling equipment on top For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.5/P2 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 07 05/11/2007 SURVIVAL All raft occupants should partially deflate their life vests for greater comfort, but should not remove them Small children should be tied to adults Water which has entered the raft should be bailed out and the raft interior wiped dry If sponges are available, it should be kept clean for collecting moisture from the inside surfaces of the canopy to be stored an alternative source of salt-free water Sea sickness is a major problem All survivors should have been given tablets already Suffering survivor should be moved close to exits Assign lookout duties to suitable persons They should be protected from sun and wind burn Lookout be maintained at all times, day and night, and fostered – two hours being the maximum time for each lookout The following guidelines relate to the use of the sea anchor: – The sea anchor is deployed from the raft to reduce drift and to increase stability in heavy seas – Deploy the anchor from the open-ended side of the raft If rafts are connected, deploy from the aft end of the trailing raft The sea anchor can be used to position the raft when grouping a number of rafts together after ditching To achieve this tie a heavy object to the rope close to the sea anchor Throw the anchor end in the desired direction and pull on the rope This will drag the raft towards the sea anchor Repeat the action until the desired position is reached If no heavy object is available, the sea anchor can be partly filled with sea water to provide enough weight to throw it the required distance For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.6/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER SURVIVAL 5.6 Rev 06 28/09/2004 JUNGLE SURVIVAL 5.6.1 GENERAL Jungle – or tropical forest – terrain can be very varied Primary jungle has an abundance of giant trees reaching up to 200 ft Thick foliage provides cover for birds and animals living in the upper branches and ground shade which inhibits thick undergrowth Travel in primary jungles is therefore relatively easy and safe However, because of the density of the tall trees, primary jungles will be avoided if possible in choosing a forced landing site Statistics show that a forced landing in tall tree-tops will cause a large loss of life Secondary jungle results from the felling of primary jungle trees Dense undergrowth has replaced these trees over a period of time Secondary jungles are now commonly widespread through S.E Asia Clearances between trees make secondary jungle a more suitable environment for a forced landing However, movement on the ground is restricted by the undergrowth Areas of cultivation may be encountered close to human habitation Most jungles are inhabited, especially close to rivers which provide the easiest means of getting from place to place In most cases, the natives when encountered will not be hostile, although they may well be alarmed, and react accordingly If a landing in jungle is unavoidable, the Captain will try to find a clearing in secondary jungle, such as one made for paddy fields or other cultivation, a lake, river or beach 5.6.2 PROTECTION Leave the aircraft if there is a risk of fire Shelter from sun and rain is the initial priority so that survivors can be assembled and the injured treated with first aid Return to the aircraft when there is no further risk of fire Make survivors as comfortable as possible in the area around the aircraft 5.6.3 LOCATION The presence of any jungle canopy may hide the wreckage from searching aircraft, and reduce the efficiency of the emergency transmitter Stay in the vicinity of the aircraft Position emergency transmitter on nearest high ground and operate For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.6/P2 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER SURVIVAL Rev 06 28/09/2004 Scatter lifevests and clothing in any clear space to attract attention of search aircraft by their contrasting colours It is always best to stay in the vicinity of the aircraft Travel is only practicable if your approximate position is known, and you know where you are going Any parties leaving the area [for example to make contact with nearby habitation] should leave markings to facilitate the return to the aircraft Only in extreme cases might it become necessary to consider taking the injured, elderly and adults with young children away from the aircraft 5.6.4 WATER There should be no shortage of fresh water in the jungle as rainfall is high Stagnant water must be avoided unless it can be filtered, purified and boiled Vines suspended from tall trees are good sources of water when cut provided that the sap is not milky Rain traps can be made from broad leaves The water in large rivers may be muddy and polluted and must be treated before drinking 5.6.5 FOOD If there is a sufficient supply of water, edible plants and fruit may be supplemented by meat Hunting and setting traps for wild animals will be difficult and will test the survival skills of those willing to try Rats, snakes, lizards, fish and grubs are all fair game to the resourceful In all forms of survival situations, experimentation with new foods is vital But when dealing with unfamiliar plants apply the following: Brightly colored plants Plants with a milky sap All jungle mushrooms [fungi] Some plants may cause skin irritation and fever, but poisoning is unlikely if these general rules are applied 5.6.6 HAZARDS Large animals are unlikely to be encountered as they will avoid human contact Survivors should be vigilant for snakes If bitten, refer immediately to the survival first aid kit Mosquitoes are troublesome, and hazardous in malarial areas The lighting of smoky fires will discourage them If possible, avoid swampy areas and stagnant water where they breed For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.6/P3 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER SURVIVAL Rev 06 28/09/2004 When moving through the jungle, watch out for hornets, wasps and bee nests in trees If attacked, run away through the thickest bushes and away from the rest of the group In swampy areas leeches clinging to the body will not at first be detected Inspect each other at frequent intervals Remove the leeches by applying heat [a lighted cigarette], tobacco in the bite will become infected Ticks and other animal parasites cause irritation Avoid decaying vegetation or animal remains where they breed They can be smoked off the body and clothes For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.7/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 06 28/09/2004 SURVIVAL 5.7 DESERT SURVIVAL In the event of an emergency landing in the desert, the following basic rules should be followed: Stay in the vicinity of the aircraft Search aircraft are looking for a crashed aircraft – not individuals walking in the desert Protect the skin immediately from the effects of solar radiation and the eyes and head from intense sunshine Erect shelter as quickly as possible, using aircraft parts Erect emergency transmitter and activate Assemble flares ready for use Conserve energy as much as possible so as to avoid loss of body fluids The lack of water will be a serious problem Stocks rescued from the aircraft must be rationed Water in fire extinguishers must not be used as it contains glycol – a toxic anti-freeze substance Avoid walking and working during the hottest part of the day, if possible For training purposes only BASIC SAFETY FOR CREW 5.8/P1 TRAINING MANUAL CHAPTER Rev 06 28/09/2004 SURVIVAL 5.8 POST-SURVIVAL – THE AFTER-EFFECTS Incidents and accidents involving aircraft are required by international, national and company laws to be investigated, and reported Cabin Crew will be involved Cabin Crew will NOT be involved in reporting to the media They should avoid contact with journalists and news reporters Survival of any emergency situation causes shock to the survivor in one form or another and in varying degrees It is especially severe where there has been loss of life Cabin Crew are not immune from shock They will be subject to medical examination, and therapy if necessary, and remain under medical observation for as long as the doctors consider it necessary A return to duty after rest is often the best form of therapy Cabin Crew members must recognize unusual symptoms in
