Survivability & Evacuation Aspects in Final Reports

Jan 22, 2025

Abstract

Final reports of occurrences that involved an evacuation of the aircraft usually lack consistency when it comes to describing the evacuation process. This is, however, an essential safety aspect, and IFALPA believes that final reports should always include a thorough study of the evacuation sequence and survivability, in accordance with the provisions of ICAO Doc 9756, along with the relevant safety recommendations.
