Cabin Fire Safety

Even a small fire in the confined space of an aircraft cabin that is not brought under control quickly and efficiently can have devastating effects.

It is possible for a cabin fire to break out at any time, so this video clearly shows flight attendants the main causes and what can be done to reduce the risks of a fire starting.

Extensive global research has been carried out with airlines to ensure that the information shown is applicable, irrespective of the size of your airline or the type of craft. All the incidents shown are re-constructions of events that have actually occurred.

The video is suitable for both abinitio and recurrent training and will also provide flight deck crews with a better understanding of the problems faced by cabin crews in the prevention of fire.

Locations of Onboard Fires:

45% Toilets
25% Cabin
25% Galley
5% Hand Baggage

Inflight Fire Fighting

A UK CAA recognised training video, which provides vital and up to date information on the very latest techniques crews should adopt for fighting in fires.

The program includes the triangle of fire fighting, classes of fire and technical aspects of fire fighting covering toilet fires, overhead stowage fires, in flight entertainment systems, concealed fires, under floor fires, gashbag fires, oven fires, seat fires, cockpit fires and smoke in the cabin.

Includes instructor training pack for training cabin crew and flight deck.

Toilet Fire

This programme is aimed at flight deck and cabin crew CRM training and general cabin crew fire training.

When a toilet fire started in an Air Canada DC9 at 33,000 feet, the captain assumed that it was minor and decided to continue the flight.

The on board fire went on to become so severe that the flight attendants had to relocate passengers away from thick black smoke at the rear of the aircraft, yet the decision to finally divert the aircraft was not made until 18 minutes after the first indication of the problem.

The aircraft eventually landed 13 minutes after declaring a full emergency, and the crew began to evacuate the passengers. However, 60 seconds after the evacuation started, a severe flash fire erupted, claiming the lives of 23 passengers.

The programme can assist with CRM training and provides an invaluable insight into the problems faced by pilots in a potentially catastrophic situation.

Based throughout on 3D computer graphics, this video offers valuable insight into how the breakdown in communication occurred, and how this seriously affected the outcome of the incident.

Fire on Board

Flight SK378 left Oslo on a domestic flight with two pilots, three cabin attendants and 103 passengers on board. A serious electrical fire followed an explosion and the emergency started...

The pilots started their emergency procedures and requested redirection to Oslo.

Dense poisonous smoke in the cockpit meant that the pilots had to use oxygen masks which hampered their attempts at making cabin announcements, and the only way they could read the limited amount of working instruments was by flashlight.

Radar contact had been lost and the ATC transponder had dropped out making the landing extremely difficult for the pilots.

Ultimately a safe landing took place as the flight attendants, in the absence of seatbelt signs, gave orders for the passengers to brace for impact.

Ground based Emergency Services

This video illustrates the actions of Airport Fire Services during an emergency situation.

It reconstructs an emergency involving an airliner that has an in-flight fire and is required to evacuate upon landing.

It shows the positioning of fire service vehicles prior to the airliner landing and their subsequent actions during the event.

This video is designed to increase awareness of flight and cabin crew of what will be happening outside the aircraft during an emergency on the ground.
