pilot incapacitation on regional ........

Hi,

I have flown both regional size aircraft and bigger aircraft in the same company.

Same procedure : In case of pilot incapacitation, immediately call the cabin attendants in order to have the affected pilot removed from the cockpit - they have learned to operate the seat and seatbelt.
The cabin attendants then give the sick pilot first aid, if applicable.

The remaining pilot is now on his own - does all the functions in the cockpit alone and lands at nearest airport.

We often train this procedure in the simulator.

Brgds
