Time Available Emergency on Land. When using the QRG, what will the No.1 read out loud first, to ensure that the relevant checklist has been found?

• A. Condition Statement
• B. Checklist Reference
• C. Emergency Call Sign
• D. Safety Briefing

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is how the Quick Reference Guide is used to quickly identify the correct emergency procedure. The first thing you read aloud is the Condition Statement because it describes the exact emergency you’re dealing with. It names the scenario, important factors, and the situation you’re in, which immediately tells you which set of procedures applies. Reading this first acts as a filter to ensure you don’t start the wrong checklist.

Once the condition is confirmed, you then look for the corresponding Checklist Reference, which directs you to the specific, step-by-step actions to take. The Emergency Call Sign is for communicating with ATC and others, not for selecting the checklist, and the Safety Briefing relates to passenger safety, not the procedural path for the emergency.
