Transcript from ‘Confessions Of An Airline Pilot’ podcast

Scott – When all of the passengers are getting onto the aircraft, we’re briefing what happens what we expect to happen if everything goes right. We’re also briefing what happens when things go wrong and we’re looking at different scenarios. What are the worst scenarios if we’re on the take off roll and what would we do if this happened? We will always brief if we need to return immediately and that would probably be for as fumes or smoke in the flight deck. If we’re on fire and we can’t put the fire out, we’ll be immediately returning and we’ll come up with a couple of scenarios, so that in our head when we see it pop up, we’ll think, oh that’s one of the ones we briefed.
