In a Time Available Evacuation on Land, which crew member is assigned to switch on ELS at two minutes to landing?

• A. No2
• B. No1
• C. No3
• D. No4

Answer: (A)

In Time Available Evacuation on Land, safety tasks are carried out in a precise, timed sequence so passengers can evacuate quickly if needed. Activating the Emergency Lighting System is a timing-critical step because bright, illuminated exits help people find their way to safety as soon as doors are opened. The crew member designated to switch on the ELS two minutes before landing is the one assigned to this specific duty in the evacuation plan. Having that role clearly assigned ensures the lighting is in place even as other crew members handle tasks like preparing doors, briefing passengers, or securing galley items. If evacuation becomes necessary after touchdown, the illuminated exits make directing people toward the correct routes much safer and faster. This is why the ELS activator is chosen for that moment in the procedure.
