Jetblue LGB-AUS engine failure

Is yelling "brace brace brace" standard for SE landings? When I had mine there really wasn't any cause for commotion like that. Granted, their plane was initially filled with smoke, but hmm.
 
Emergency evac! Down the slides!


Hold on, yo, I gotta get ma bags..........

Save them for CQ so I can say, "Hey man, there wasn't supposed to be an oral!" :)

Honestly though, me too. I'd think they'd have gone over that in FA initial.

I plan on creating a 10 page quiz. requiring people to draw out complete systems. :D

The FAs dropping the masks, the brace brace brace, the evac... so many questions!

We have this "code yellow" or "code red" system. If you plan to evacuate upon landing, you tell the FAs code red. Unfortunately one of the things code red tells the FAs (in their procedures) is to use the brace command.

Of course, they didn't follow procedure with the O2 masks, so...

It seems like every time I went to training there would be a different answer for every scenario when it came to the FA's. I guess it's whos doing the class that day.
 
I know someone who went through FA initial here not too long ago. I can tell you, it's more of a "cram this info into your skull and you'll learn the rest as you go." They spend more time going through the FAM than they do emergencies, and when you get on the line as a FA, they spend more time harassing you on reserve or making sure you're in uniform compliance than anything else.....

Oh.

So, we're not talking the same thing as a USMC Code Red then........
 
The FA dropped the masks on their own will? Please tell me it is not true? I work here and only have heard tid bits.

It appears that way, but it's hard to know from outside the investigation. If so, if expect some communication about what the masks are for, and what they are definitely not for.

Wait, why is there a switch back there for that at all?

(I know you can pop the doors manually and so on, but it looks like they're all down. Every smoke and fire procedure ever: "DO NOT deploy the passenger oxygen masks.")

There isn't. Word on the street is that they manually deployed them one at a time.
