FLOWS & Procedures Flashcards
Electrical Power Up
(Not memorized, read and do)
Do if you get to a dark airplane with one blue light (Ground Power Available) or, if no ground power and you’ll need the APU for electrical.
Can hit lights switch on forward FA panel to turn some lights on so it’s not completely dark.
If RED A/C out-of-service tag is on thrust levers, don’t touch anything and go sit down in first class
Don’t establish hydraulic power if flaps will move unless you cleared the outside area
Not memorized, read and do.

On the aft flight attendant panel in back of plane so run back there before passengers start boarding so you don’t get stuck. This is NOT in the FA’s scan so they don’t even know what the gauge means. On your way, check wings for contaminants/de-ice possibility
