The cabin crew who participated in the 25.803 test and were located on the upper deck of the A380-800;
Airbus provided data of exit sill height. The JOEB considered that the difference between the main deck sill height and the upper deck sill height was not significant given the overall size of the A380-800.
The descent techniques and the skills required for cabin crew is identical for making a descent of both the main deck and the upper deck slides.
The training of the cabin crew who participated in the 25.803 test using only a main deck slide descent validated a positive transfer of learning for those cabin crew who made a descent of the upper deck slides during the test.
Taking the above criterion into account, the JOEB Cabin Crew Subgroup concluded that cabin crew operating on the A380-800, need not make a descent of an upper deck slide, provided that alternative regulatory training requirements in lieu of an upper deck slide are completed.
JOEB conclusion: Cabin crew need NOT make a descent of an upper deck slide.
However, the following training should be included:
.
Each cabin crew member should be provided with theoretical training on the use of A380-800 upper deck evacuation slides and how to make a slide descent. This should take into account any slide platforms associated with upper deck canted slides, as well as the evacuation commands and the actions that might be necessary to motivate and assist passengers down upper deck slides.
.
Each cabin crew member should view a video sequence of an evacuation from the upper deck of the A380-800. This video shall clearly show the slide descent procedures. The video shall also show:
.
The inflation sequence, from both the inside and outside;
.
The sound of the inflation;
.
A deployed upper deck slide; and
.
Slide platforms .
Each cabin crew member should stand at an open A380-800 Type A exit, being located at a height representative of an A380-800 exit sill height (either main deck or upper deck), and become familiar with the exit location and its environment, (i.e. the areas immediately adjacent to the exit), as per JAR-OPS 1.1012 - Familiarisation, and the associated AMC OPS 1.1012, paragraph 4.1 (m).
. Each cabin crew member should make a slide descent of an A380-800 main deck slide, or similar (i.e. from a representative sill height and with dual lanes).
