Scenario : A passenger travelling in first class faints. List out the actions you would take.
Immediately a lot of members wanted to issue Pan-Pan or a Mayday call instantly before doing anything else.
other members then opposed saying talking to ATC is not priority, rather ask cabin crew to first check for any medical personell on board and possibly administer first aid/CPR.
the Mayday/Pan pan fans relentlessly argued and finally one bright chap declared : "okay gentlemen ! lets all have a vote and then we can arrive at a concensus !! how many for pan-pan or mayday call .. please raise your hands ? ... how many for cabin crew/first aid ?? ... OK .. done! we first issue May day or pan pan call and then only ask cabin crew to check passenger and first aid if necessary.
one member was silent throughout (and this guy by the way got selected
) .. I'd say remaining silent in the hell house seemed to be safest option !
he did keep nodding his head and used few words like "oh umm yeah .. " ".. umm yes I agree." .."um .. you're right" "hmm thats a good point !"
