Question What is CATASTROPHIC?

This question has been raised in another thread and there seems to be a grey area as to what it is.

More specifically - Cabin crew can initiate an evacuation in CATASTROPHIC CURCUMSTANCES without contacting the flight deck.

So here we go!

What's your deffinition?
When would you expect to be contacted?
When wouldn't you?
What does your company manual say?

This is a subject that needs to be clarified as I and I'm sure other cabin crew have no wish initiate an evactuation if the pilots think they should have been informed first.

Cabin Crew / FA's reading this, your input is improtant here, so please do post!!!
