cargo fire
On a recent B767 LOFT scenario I was given cargo fire. Company SOP’s state U cannot open cargo doors before disembarking pax. QRH, divert, etc.I used all available resources to get info incl CC feedback but did not have indications of smoke or heat from cabin. “CARGO FIRE” light did not extinguish. After landing fire marshal checked skin for heat and any other clues and reported none. I elected to “deplane” pax after vacating the RW as stairs were avail, rather than evacuate. Boss said should have evac, coz no positive proof (understand visual identification) of absence of fire was avail with cargo doors closed. Tried FSF, seems dey won’t commit.
