THE OPERATIONS BULLETIN SHOULD STRESS THE NUMBER OF FLIGHT ATTENDANTS THAT THE OPERATOR IS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE IN ACCORDANCE WITH 14 CFR 91.215, THE COMPLETENESS AND ADEQUACY OF THE ORAL PASSENGER BRIEFING GIVEN BY THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT(S), THE ADEQUACY OF THE TRAINING GIVEN THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT(S), THE CORRECTNESS OF THE BRIEFING CARDS, AND THE PROPER NUMBER AND AVAILABILITY TO PASSENGERS OF BRIEFING CARDS ON THE AIRPLANE.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The Federal Aviation Administration is asked to issue an operations bulletin directing general aviation inspectors and accident prevention specialists to review flight attendant requirements and passenger education practices of Part 91 operators of large and turbine-powered multiengine airplanes. The bulletin should emphasize the required number of flight attendants under 14 CFR 91.215, the completeness and adequacy of oral passenger briefings, flight attendant training, the correctness of briefing cards, and the proper number and availability of briefing cards on the airplane.
This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
