Day 6- Safety- Equipments
• What Safety Equipment Is on an Aircraft?
• The aviation industry takes safety seriously. Air travel is generally very safe, and if an accident does happen, every aircraft has the proper
equipment to ensure the safety of all crewmembers and passengers.
• Oxygen Systems
• Because air at higher altitudes is colder and less dense, it contains fewer oxygen molecules, making it harder to breathe. Air filtration
systems help convert the outside air into breathable air. In case of a system failure, emergency oxygen systems ensure that everyone still has
access to oxygen.
• Cabin Oxygen System
• Each passenger seat, flight attendant seat and bathroom is equipped with oxygen generators and masks. If the cabin altitude reaches 14,000
feet, oxygen masks automatically deploy from above. If the automatic system fails, the flight crew has access to an override switch to open
the oxygen doors for the cabin. And in case that doesn’t work, flight attendants can manually open each oxygen door through a release hole
in the door.
• Flight Crew Oxygen System
• The cockpit contains one mask for each member of the flight crew. These masks also include extra features compared to the cabin masks..
• Portable Oxygen System
• Portable oxygen systems allow for oxygen to be used in emergencies where activation of the entire cabin’s oxygen system is not required. If
a passenger is having trouble breathing, flight attendants and licensed medical providers on the plane can bring the oxygen directly to them.
Day 6- Safety- Equipments
• Evacuation Tools
• In an emergency landing, evacuation tools ensure that passengers and crew members
can safely exit the plane.
• Here is a list of standard aircraft evacuation tools:
• Flashlights: Every pilot seat houses high-intensity flashlights behind them. These
flashlights feature a flashing LED indicator to show that they are working correctly.
• Crash axe: Usually stored behind the copilot’s seat, the crash ax is strong enough to
cut metal, open holes and force open doors and windows.
• Megaphones: If there’s a power outage to the aircraft’s public address system,
megaphones help the crew share critical information.
• Evacuation slides: These slides are stored in the emergency exit doors and, once
inflated and deployed, passengers can safely exit the plane without dropping from a
dangerous height.
DAY 6- Safety- Equipments
• Halon Fire Extinguishers
• If an electrical, oil or fuel fire starts, crew members will use a Halon fire extinguisher. The chemical is suitable for
use in cold weather and does not conduct electricity, making it perfect for aircraft use
• Portable Water Fire Extinguishers
• Water fire extinguishers are suitable for wood, paper and fabric fires. As the name suggests, these cylinders hold a
pressurized solution of alkali salts in water. When operated, the cylinder projects a fine mist that extinguishes the
flames.
• Protective Breathing Units (PBU)
• PBUs are personal smoke hoods that protect crewmembers from smoke inhalation..
• Water Emergency Equipment
• In a water landing, passengers and crewmembers must deploy water flotation devices to remain safe until help
arrives.
• Personal flotation devices: Each crew member and passenger has access to a life vest equipped with a locator
light, an instruction manual and an oral inflation system. Additionally, the seat cushions in passenger seats serve as
flotation devices during an emergency.
• Life rafts: Most commonly found in wide-body international aircraft, life rafts are stored in the ceiling near the
exits. Life rafts generally have survival kits that include signal flares, knives and covers to block the sun’s harmful
rays. In some cases, the evacuation slide itself can even be used as a flotation device.
Day 6- SAFETY- Equipments
Day 7- Safety- Emergency Handling
• Ditching is a deliberate emergency landing on water, it is not an
uncontrolled impact. Ditching events beyond coastal waters are rare,
but experience suggests that if the aircraft impacts the water under
control, the chance of survival is high

spacecraft) under emergency conditions usually with damage to the
