Discrepancy Reporting/Flight Log Entries<br />
Reporting of a system and other airplane discrepancies to the <strong>ERAU</strong> Fleet<br />
Maintenance Department is of the utmost importance. Prompt notification<br />
not only allows Fleet Maintenance to respond quickly, but to pre-plan for<br />
down line maintenance. In addition, reporting certain mechanical<br />
discrepancies such as: engine failures, fire warnings, and fire extinguisher<br />
discharges are required by regulation.<br />
Emergency Procedures<br />
Initially, flying the airplane and confirming an emergency are most<br />
important steps in dealing with any emergency. Emergency procedures<br />
may include immediate action items that are of such critical nature that they<br />
must be accomplished from memory. Memory steps are enclosed in a<br />
Dashed Box. Memory steps are to be called out and accomplished prior to<br />
reading the <strong>checklist</strong>. When accomplishing the <strong>checklist</strong>, the pilot reads<br />
the <strong>checklist</strong> aloud, taking note of all instructions. Conditions permitting,<br />
the Pilot Flying (PF) maintains an awareness of <strong>checklist</strong> progress and<br />
announces when the emergency procedure is complete.<br />
Communications<br />
Proper communication during normal, emergency, and abnormal situation<br />
is essential to safe and effective mission management. Such situations<br />
include, but are not limited to, airplane system irregularities and<br />
emergencies, medical emergencies, and diversions. In such<br />
circumstances, the pilot should communicate as appropriate with:<br />
- ATC: Declaring emergency and communicating intentions.<br />
- <strong>ERAU</strong> Dispatch: Coordinating emergency support and/or diversions.<br />
- <strong>ERAU</strong> Fleet Maintenance Department: Support for resolving and<br />
handling airplane system abnormalities.<br />
- FSS: Obtaining weather updates and coordinating emergency<br />
support and/or diversions.<br />
Advising control and resource groups of these situations as well as pilot<br />
intentions is paramount in utilizing all available resources to arrive at an<br />
informed plan of action.<br />
