e-briefing: Right column

System description

Common to both pages

Communication and coordination between the cabin and flight crew are essential.

The information that the flight crew receives from the cabin crew determines the course of action that the flight crew will take. Therefore, it is vitally important that the flight crew receives a realistic account of the events in the cabin, as they occur.

If smoke or fumes are detected in the cabin, the flight crew should be informed immediately.

One cabin crewmember should act as a liaison between the cabin and the cockpit, via the interphone: This will avoid conflicting information. The information should be clear and concise, and reflect the conditions in the cabin. Remember to “Keep it Simple”!

• Location • Source (if possible) • Severity (density, color, odor, how it is affecting people) • Action taken.

Never underestimate the severity of smoke and fire, when reporting to the flight crew. Do not mention fire, unless flames are actually visible.

Cockpit/Cabin coordination

• Coffee maker smoke, immediately identified and isolated

• Smoke source not immediately identified

Airbus smoke procedure philosophy finalized and in line with international recommendations.

SA and LR paper procedures harmonized. ECAM procedures will soon be harmonized as well (FWC F4).

Situation Awareness and procedure understanding improved by the FCTM and the e-briefing.
