Question Miscommunication btwn CC and Flight Deck....

Hey all....

I'm currently writing a report for classes regarding CRM and how deficiencies can contribute to accidents. To narrow it down a bit, I have decided to focus on miscommunication between Cabin Crew and Flight Deck. (both ways)

Thus far I have two examples, one is the Airtours(?) 737 which shut down the wrong engine after CC didn't tell the Capt the sparks were from OTHER engine... the other is that ASA Brasilia where the CC didn't inform the Capt the whole engine was gone...

Just wondering if anyone else know of other examples (as well as situations where Flight Deck omitted/misinformed CC which resulted in injury/death...)

Also if you personally have had any experience with this, and are willing to provide date/time/type of incident (obviously if it is on public record only) please PM me. I ask this because w ehave to reference any experiences told to us so they know it 'really happened'.... lol.....

Mod, feel free to move to Safety/CRM if that's a more appropriate place...

Thanks for any help you can give!!
