Doors 5 is a perfect example of a safety issue. Or, it's more about BA changing its mind over something that has been pushed into our heads year after year. It was even mentioned at my SEP 6 months ago that doors must never be left unattended. Other airlines could have different procedures, what do I know? Maybe BA should do what they did to doors 3 on 747 Classic and seal them up!
I would use the ELT because we have been trained about how and when to use it and sometimes it's even covered in briefing. It's different from doors 5!
