Fire/smoke workload structure
I am interested of hearing your opinions on your structure on an non extinguishable fire or smoke (ENG, APU, cargo smoke, cabin smoke)
Let’s say you complete your procedure and the fire remains. How do you plan on doing things?
Specifically on the delegation aspect. It’s the perfect time to delegate so you can earn time!
Aside from gathering latest weather.
Do you give controls and comms to the other pilot to prepare the approach while you handle NITS and PA if there is time? Then check FMS and do a quick brief and execution of the approach?
Or do you split your roads with delegating him to do the NITS and PA if time while you self prepare the FMS and then join together and brief to shoot the approach?
Or any other way or mix you like better? I understand that altitude and time to go is a factor to account in (especially you want to avoid PF to be heads down) and there is no correct or wrong answer, but what’s your main plan? I am amazed by the different opinions that I hear by my colleagues!
