Mapping.
• An emergency evacuation is initiated when
uncontrollable risks, such as engine or cargo fires,
persist on the ground. Key considerations include:
• Decision-Making Factors:
• - Fire status confirmation from ATC or ground
crew.
• - Aircraft position and environmental conditions.
• 1. Ensure the aircraft is stopped and parking

brake is set.
2. Announce: 'Attention Crew at Stations' via PA.
Evacuation: •
•
3. Complete ECAM actions and verify fire status.
4. Check Delta P to ensure no residual cabin

pressure.
5. If evacuation is required:
Step • - Notify cabin crew and activate evacuation
command.
• - Inform ATC and coordinate external assistance.
• 6. If evacuation is not required:
• - Maintain passenger safety and continue
monitoring the situation.
• A rejected takeoff is
executed when an
aircraft cannot safely
continue the takeoff
Rejected due to critical failures
or external hazards.
Takeoff •
•
Key Decision Points:
- Below 100 knots:
(RTO): Reject takeoff for tire
bursts, bird strikes, or
non-ECAM events.
Overview • - Above 100 knots:
Continue takeoff unless
there is a critical failure
(e.g., engine fire).
• Factors to Consider:
• - Runway length and
weather conditions.
• - Aircraft system status
and ATC coordination.
Rejected
• 1. Announce: 'STOP!'
Takeoff: • 2. Move thrust levers to IDLE and apply MAX
reverse thrust.
Flow • 3. Stow reversers and set the parking brake.
Pattern •
•
4. Notify ATC: 'AIRBUS_____, STOPPING.'
5. Execute ECAM actions to assess the situation.
• 6. Determine if an evacuation is required and
proceed accordingly.
• Effective task sharing ensures a coordinated
response during emergencies:
• Captain:
• - Makes the decision to evacuate or continue.
• - Activates evacuation command and
communicates with ATC.
• Cabin Crew:
• - Prepares passengers for evacuation.
• - Executes evacuation procedures upon
command.
• The following competencies are enhanced
through adherence to these procedures:
Summary •
sharing.
- Base decisions on situational awareness and risk
assessment.
• - Enhance crew competencies through consistent
training and adherence to protocols.
