If a cockpit crew member becomes incapacitated, the remaining crew member must call a cabin attendant as soon as practicable.

The best way to request assistance from the cabin crew, is by means of the passenger address system:

"ATTENTION, PURSER TO COCKPIT PLEASE” he purser or any other cabin attendant must proceed to the cockpit immediately.

The cabin attendant must then: Tighten and manually lock the shoulder harness of the incapacitated crew member; Push the seat completely aft; Recline the seat back.

It takes 2 people to remove the dead weight of an unconscious body from a seat without endangering any controls and switches.

If it is not possible to remove the body, one cabin attendant must remain in the cockpit to take care of and observe the incapacitated crew member.

In coordination with the purser: Request assistance from any medically qualified passenger.

Check if a type qualified company pilot is on board to replace the incapacitated crew member.
