Flashcards
0/30
Engine Fire During Takeoff Roll
Abort takeoff, apply maximum braking, and evacuate aircraft if necessary.
Smoke or Fumes in Cockpit
Put on oxygen masks, identify the source, and follow the smoke removal procedure.
Electrical System Failure
Fly the aircraft, attempt to restore power using APU or backup generators, and follow emergency checklists.
In-Flight Icing
Activate de-icing systems, change altitude or route to escape icing conditions.
Rapid Cabin Depressurization
Don oxygen masks, initiate emergency descent, and communicate with ATC.
Bird Strike
Assess damage, continue takeoff or landing as per situation, and inform ATC.
Stall or Stall Warning
Apply stall recovery technique, increase thrust, and reduce angle of attack.
Dual Engine Failure
Establish best glide speed, troubleshoot, and prepare for a possible ditching or emergency landing.
Unlawful Interference / Hijacking
Follow protocols for crew coordination and communication, signal distress, and comply with demands if necessary for safety.
Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) Resolution Advisory
Follow TCAS commands immediately, inform ATC, and avoid manual visual maneuvering.
Flaps Failure
Perform no-flap or partial-flap landing procedures and calculate new landing distances.
Landing with Inoperative Reversers
Adjust landing distance calculations, and apply maximum braking and spoiler deployment after touchdown.
On-Ground Collision with Obstacle
Stop the aircraft safely, assess the situation, and evacuate if there’s immediate danger.
Autopilot Malfunction
Disengage autopilot, manually fly the aircraft, and troubleshoot the issue.
Radio Communication Failure
Follow lost communication procedures, squawk 7600, and proceed with intended route or as detailed in the flight plan.
Overspeed or High-Speed Buffet
Reduce thrust, extend spoilers if necessary, and slowly decrease airspeed.
Loss of Control in Flight (LOC-I)
Apply correct recovery techniques, disengage autopilot, and manually recover aircraft.
Fuel Starvation or Imbalance
Manage fuel supply, adjust engine usage, and re-balance fuel tanks if possible.
GPS Signal Loss
Switch to secondary navigation methods and communicate with ATC for vectoring if needed.
Cabin Door Warning
Abort takeoff or divert for emergency landing, and check door security or latches.
Total Engine Failure After Takeoff
Execute immediate return or forced landing procedures, depending on altitude and location.
Hydraulic System Failure
Switch to alternate or emergency hydraulic systems and follow corresponding procedures.
Control Surface Jam
Attempt to identify and free the jammed surface, use alternative control methods, and declare an emergency.
Pilot Incapacitation
Second pilot should assume control, solicit help from crew, and consider diverting to nearest suitable airport.
Single Engine Failure in Twin-Engine Aircraft
Maintain directional control, secure the failed engine, and continue flight with the remaining engine.
Emergency Landing Gear Extension
Use manual gear extension procedures if automatic system fails.
Pressurization System Malfunction
Use oxygen if needed, descend to a safe altitude, and troubleshoot the pressurization system.
Aircraft Structural Damage
Assess damage, reduce airspeed, divert to nearest suitable airport.
Cabin Fire
Use fire extinguishers, don oxygen masks if needed, and plan immediate landing or diversion.
Emergency Evacuation on Ground
Command evacuate if necessary, use emergency exits, and follow crew coordination protocols.
