JOEB Conclusions: The JOEB conclusions in respect of A380-800 cabin emergency equipment are in Appendix B.
4- JAR-OPS Subpart O – Cabin Crew
4.1 JAR-OPS 1.990 Number and composition of cabin crew for the A380-800
JAR-OPS 1.990 States:
(a)
An operator shall not operate an aeroplane with a maximum approved passenger seating configuration of more than 19, when carrying one or more passengers, unless at least one cabin crew member is included in the crew for the purpose of performing duties, specified in the Operations Manual, in the interests of the safety of passengers.
(b)
When complying with sub-paragraph (a) above, an operator shall ensure that the minimum number of cabin crew is the greater of:
(1)
One cabin crew member for every 50, or fraction of 50, passenger seats installed on the same deck of the aeroplane; or
(2)
The number of cabin crew who actively participated in the aeroplane cabin during the relevant emergency evacuation demonstration, or who were assumed to have taken part in the relevant analysis, except that, if the maximum approved passenger seating configuration is less than the number evacuated during the demonstration by at least 50 seats, the number of cabin crew may be reduced by 1 for every whole multiple of 50 seats by which the maximum approved passenger seating configuration falls below the certificated maximum capacity.
Airbus applied for A380-800 initial type certification with 538 passenger seats on the main deck and 315 passenger seats on the upper deck. There are five pairs of Type ‘A’ exits on the main deck and three pairs of Type ‘A’ exits on the upper deck.
Based on the one per fifty criteria of JAR-OPS 1.990, the required cabin crew complement for the main deck will be 11 cabin crew members, and for the upper deck will be 7 cabin crew members. The number of required cabin crew will therefore exceed the number of Type ‘A’ exits by one cabin crew member for each deck of the A380-800.
The emergency evacuation demonstration for initial type certification of the A380-800 was conducted with 18 cabin crew members: 11 cabin crew members on the main deck and seven cabin crew members on the upper deck. Ten of the cabin crew members on the main deck had crew stations adjacent to the 10 Type A exits. The 11th cabin crew member on the main deck was seated adjacent to Door 1R which is also adjacent to the bottom of the forward stairwell. Six of the cabin crew on the upper deck had cabin crew stations adjacent to the six Type A exits. The 7th cabin crew member was stationed adjacent to top of the forward stairwell, which is not adjacent to a Type A exit.
