CREW INCAPACITATION
Initial Actions
MAINTAIN AIRCRAFT CONTROL
- Announce “I HAVE CONTROL”
- Use takeover pb (40s) as appropriate
- Perform callouts & checklist aloud
- Notify ATC
If time and conditions permit…
- Call Lead FA
- Restrain incapacitated crewmember
- Locate additional pilot on-board
> Company, Type-rated, jumpseater
- Locate medical assistance
*- If unable to re-locate crewmember, 1 FA must remain to monitor
- Land at nearest suitable airport

SEVERE TURBULENCE
SIGNS - ON
SPEED & THRUST - ADJUST
*Do not chase Mach or airspeed
*Initial SPD target of .76 or 275
‐ Reference “Speed and Thrust Setting for Recommended Turbulence Speed” tables.
AUTO PILOT - KEEP ON
If excessive thrust variations:
A/THR - DISCONNECT
*If the Flight Crew flies the aircraft manually, they may expect large variations in altitude, but should not chase altitude.
DESCENT TO OR BELOW OPT FL - CONSIDER
‐ Consider descending to or below OPT FL in order to increase buffet margin.
For approach:
A/THR - ON
MANAGED SPEED - USE
Note: For landing:
‐ Configuration FULL, or 3, can be used
‐ CONF FULL provides better handling capability in turbulent conditions, however, CONF 3 provides more energy and less drag.

WINDSHEAR -
CAUTION,
SUSPECTED,
PREDICTIVE
“WINDSHEAR AHEAD” or
“GO AROUND WINDSHEAR AHEAD”
> = On ground:
Delay take-off.
Inhibited above 100 kts
+ If before V1:
“REJECT”
If windshear occurs during the takeoff roll, the aircraft may reach V1 later (or sooner) than expected. The flight crew should ensure that there is sufficient runway remaining to stop the aircraft, if necessary.
+ If after V1, initial climb:
“CONTINUE”
THR LEVERS - TOGA
Closely monitor speed and vertical paths
> = Landing:
Asses weather conditions
Consider another runway
Consider FLAPS 3
Use managed speed for GS-mini protections
May increase VAPP by +15
