QF 767 slide deployment Perth 10/7
There is some rumour a CSM popped a slide yesterday on a 767 in Perth as the aerobridge approached almost injuring ground staff ..... I know one was popped a month or so ago in Syd, but does anyone know if this Perth incident is true...
blueloo,
Heard the same thing myself yesterday. Was the L1 door on a 767, which is apparently the CSMs designated door.

Does anyone know how long it has been since the flight attendants did the "disarm and crosscheck" procedure? When did it change?
IIRC it was so CC would take responsibility for their own doors. Perception was they were relying on the cross checkers too much.

Sorry but this is a Qantas procedures fault.
In CX normally the doors are opened from the outside AFTER the crew give them a Thumbs up.
If they forget to disarm the door, opening from the OUTSIDE disarms the door.
Simple..

It's not a procedural fault. The procedures are clear and appear to be the same as Cathay's. I suspect a brain fart or similar.
ALAEA Fed Sec. It's not been 20 years as Roo has suggested. It came in after I joined and that was 18 years ago. My gut says it changed after I became an F/O and so that makes it sometime in the last 15ish years.

Well laugh and snigger all you want mastercaution, if its not already QF proceedure ( maybe it is Keg? ) then it should be.
If the door was opened from the OUTSIDE this incident SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE........
That you cannot dispute......

You stated "sorry, but this is a Qantas procedures Fault"
Then you went on to outline how opening a door from the outside will automatically disarm the door.
Do you honestly believe that Qantas would not be aware of this?
If the crew member involved HAD followed Qantas procedures, given the thumbs up for ground staff to open the door from the outside then this thread would not exist.
It is more a case of a crew member NOT following company procedures for that aircraft type.
Human Error.

It is a Qantas procedure. People ignore them sometimes however for a myriad of reasons.
I almost lost a door on pushback in Perth a few years ago due to people forgetting procedures. Fortunately the Ground Engineer knew his procedures and became the broken link in the causal chain.
