SECTION II: INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Course Objectives & Content

Course Objectives: The aim of this course is to ensure that cabin crew candidates develop the competence to assess emergency situations that may occur during flight or on the ground in accordance with national and international civil aviation regulations, apply appropriate emergency response procedures, and effectively manage passenger safety.
Within the scope of this course, students are expected to be able to:
recognize emergency situations that may occur during flight, such as decompression, cabin fire and smoke, emergency landing, and evacuation,
apply in-cabin emergency procedures,
plan and manage emergency evacuation processes,
maintain effective communication and coordination within the cabin crew,
use emergency equipment correctly and safely,
guide passengers during emergencies and manage passenger panic,
understand the procedures to be followed in the case of pilot incapacitation and support cockpit–cabin coordination,
apply basic survival techniques following a forced landing on land or water.
This course is structured in accordance with SHGM cabin crew training requirements and the operational safety approaches of ICAO and EASA.
Course Content: The following topics are covered within the scope of this course:
The concept of emergency situations in civil aviation and the operational safety approach
Emergency management and the roles and responsibilities of cabin crew
In-cabin emergency communication and crew coordination
Decompression and emergency procedures related to cabin pressure
Procedures to be applied in case of cabin fire and smoke
Use and control of emergency equipment
The supportive role of cabin crew in cases of pilot incapacitation
Emergency landing and evacuation procedures
Passenger management, panic control, and crisis communication
Survival procedures following a forced landing on land or water
The course content is delivered in accordance with SHGM cabin crew training requirements and the operational safety standards of ICAO and EASA.turbulance, types (light, moderate, severe) of turbulance and actions to be taken for turbulance.
When discussing the subject of fire/smoke procedures, the students will learn types of fire, Procedures to be followed according to type of fire, type and operation of fire extinguishers on board, Fire/ Smoke procedures and the fixed fire extungisher systems, pre-flight check of potantial fire risk areas and smoke detectors, cabin fire/lavatory fire/ galley fire/cockpit fire, preflight check and operation of fire-fighting equipment.
When discussing the subject of evacuation procedures, the students will learn forced emergency landing /ditching, Unanticipated emergency landing procedures and possitive commands (evacuation on land/ water), Anticipated emergency landing procedures and possitive commands (evacuation on land /water), impact positions for cabin crew and passengers.

Course Specific Rules

Regular attendance is expected. Attendance procedures are implemented in accordance with the relevant regulations of the university.
Scenario-based activities, group work, and practical training conducted within the course are important for achieving the intended learning outcomes.
During practical sessions, the CST (Cabin Safety Trainer) and other training equipment should be used carefully and appropriately in accordance with the instructor’s guidance.
Students are expected to demonstrate behavior consistent with aviation safety culture, participate in teamwork, and maintain effective communication throughout the course.
