TRAINING EXAM – COMPREHENSIVE
PRACTICE QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ANSWERS
Question 1: A "yellow emergency" exists when:
A) An immediate evacuation is required
B) The captain anticipates the landing will be successful and will not cause
injury to passengers or damage to the aircraft
C) The aircraft has experienced rapid decompression
D) There is a fire in the cabin that cannot be extinguished
Correct Answer: B) The captain anticipates the landing will be
successful and will not cause injury to passengers or damage to the
aircraft
Rationale: A yellow emergency indicates the need to prepare for a potential
emergency, but the captain anticipates a successful landing without injury or
damage. A red emergency indicates a higher threat level where injury or
damage is likely. This distinction is critical for flight attendants to know how
to prepare the cabin.
Question 2: The flight deck crew will inform the Purser/Flight Leader of a
yellow emergency and provide information in which format?
A) BEND OVER! STAY DOWN!
B) TTSR (type of emergency, time to prepare cabin, special instructions,
,repeat back)
C) PEEEL (Potential ABPs, Exit location, Emergency equipment, Emergency
procedures, Location of special assistance)
D) EPC (Emergency Preparation Checklist)
Correct Answer: B) TTSR (type of emergency, time to prepare cabin,
special instructions, repeat back)
Rationale: TTSR stands for Type of emergency, Time to prepare cabin, Special
instructions, and Repeat back. This communication format ensures that
critical information is accurately conveyed and understood between the flight
deck and the cabin crew during an emergency. Repeat back ensures closed-
loop communication.
Question 3: If time is limited in a red emergency, what are the two
questions you should ask the captain? (Select all that apply)
A) Is this a land or water evacuation?
B) How much time do we have to prepare?
C) What is the cause of the emergency?
D) Are there any injuries on the flight deck?
Correct Answer: A) Is this a land or water evacuation? AND B) How
much time do we have to prepare?
Rationale: When time is limited in a red emergency, the two critical questions
to ask the captain are: "Is this a land or water evacuation?" and "How much
time do we have to prepare?" These questions allow flight attendants to
prioritize their actions and prepare the cabin appropriately for the specific
type of evacuation.
,Question 4: What is the command to shout at the first sign of impact?
A) "Cabin is Secure!"
B) "Brace! Brace! Brace!"
C) "BEND OVER! STAY DOWN!"
D) "Emergency! Emergency!"
Correct Answer: C) "BEND OVER! STAY DOWN!"
Rationale: "BEND OVER! STAY DOWN!" is the command shouted at the first
sign of impact to ensure all passengers adopt the brace position. This
command should be shouted loudly and repeatedly to ensure all passengers
hear and respond, maximizing protection during impact.
Question 5: Which of the following customers could be used as an Able-
Bodied Passenger (ABP)? (Select all that apply)
A) Off-duty airline employees (OAL)
B) First Responders
C) Military members
D) Elderly passengers with mobility aids
Correct Answer: A) Off-duty airline employees (OAL), B) First
Responders, AND C) Military members
Rationale: Able-Bodied Passengers (ABPs) are passengers who are physically
fit and can assist during an emergency. Off-duty airline employees (OAL),
first responders, and military members are ideal candidates as they often
have training or physical capability to assist. Elderly passengers with mobility
aids would not be suitable ABPs.
, Question 6: How many ABPs are required for each exit when preparing for
a red emergency?
A) 1
B) 2
C) 3
D) 4
Correct Answer: C) 3
Rationale: When preparing for a red emergency, 3 ABPs are required for each
exit. This ensures there are enough capable passengers to assist with
evacuation, including helping with slide deployment, assisting special needs
passengers, and maintaining order at the exit.
Question 7: When is an exit considered a "bad exit"? (Select all that apply)
A) Door is jammed or blocked (after multiple attempts)
B) Fire at the exit
C) Escape device fails
D) Water is at an unsafe level
Correct Answer: A, B, C, and D
Rationale: An exit is considered a "bad exit" if the door is jammed or blocked
(after multiple attempts to open), there is fire at the exit, the escape device
(slide/raft) fails, or water is at an unsafe level (for ditching). In these
situations, flight attendants must redirect passengers to an alternative exit.
Question 8: When should a flight attendant activate the Emergency Light
Switch?
