The plane had another new thing, but it didn't take off this time.
On April 29, a post about the sudden release of an emergency slide of a passenger plane attracted widespread attention.
It is understood that the incident occurred at Shanghai Pudong International Airport, when a flight was about to take off normally, the crew suddenly lowered the emergency slide, a rare move that immediately aroused the attention of airport staff and passengers. Emergency slides are usually activated by the crew only in the event of a serious accident or emergency on the aircraft to ensure that passengers can be evacuated quickly.
The A320 passenger plane full of passengers in front of him did not show anything unusual, which confused the airport tower staff. The on-site staff acted quickly and got in touch with the crew to find out what was going on.
Later, it was learned that the cause of the incident was a conflict between two flight attendants on the plane.
Some people who claimed to be insiders even said that it was because the flight attendant was dissatisfied with her work and vented.
In this regard, China Eastern Airlines issued an announcement saying that the incident is under further investigation, and the company will deal with it according to the results of the investigation in accordance with the law.
Netizens are also very concerned about this incident:
Many netizens believe that this is a management problem that will affect the life safety of passengers.
There are also many netizens who have doubts about China Eastern Airlines
China Eastern Airlines has not made a specific reply to this, not to mention the management of China Eastern Airlines, it is very dangerous to release the emergency slide of the aircraft for no reason.
Airplanes are one of the fastest and most efficient means of transportation today, and ensuring flight safety is a top priority for airlines and crews.
Occasionally, however, some passengers will touch emergency equipment out of curiosity or ignorance, which can have serious consequences and cause great distress and anxiety to other passengers. Therefore, the slide on the aircraft should never be opened casually.
First, opening the emergency door or triggering the escape slide will immediately activate the aircraft's emergency procedures, which may cause the aircraft to be forced to return or diverted, causing significant delays to the flight.
In 2015, a 13-year-old Indian boy was forced to hold his flight for eight hours when he opened an emergency door when the plane landed, causing the slide to pop up automatically. In addition, the cost of refitting the escape slide is in the tens of thousands of dollars, and the airline will hold the boy's parents financially liable.
Secondly, the misuse of emergency equipment can also threaten the personal safety of those on board. In 2016, a South Korean man opened the door of the emergency cabin and tried to jump out of the plane while the plane was still in the air, causing the cabin to be swept away by huge air pressure and cause chaos. This also caused great mental trauma to other passengers and crew.
Thirdly, opening the emergency door at will is also prone to riots and panic. In August 2018, a young man opened the plane's emergency compartment because he waited too long on the plane and did not listen to the dissuasion, resulting in the plane being stranded for four hours and the man being detained for 10 days.
In summary, the aircraft's emergency equipment should only be used in the event of an emergency and with the permission of the crew, otherwise the consequences of misuse will be unimaginable. Passengers must comply with relevant laws and regulations, respect the work of the crew, and work together to maintain flight safety.
Conclusion
Human life is at stake, and responsibility is heavy. The incident of China Eastern Airlines in which a flight attendant opened an evacuation slide on the ground is shocking and thought-provoking.
The aviation industry has extremely high requirements for the professional and psychological quality of employees, and flight attendants bear the heavy responsibility of ensuring flight safety and taking care of passengers. In the event of a physical attack or mental disorder at a high altitude, the consequences are unimaginable.
The body is the foundation of health, but the mental quality should not be ignored either. Airlines should provide regular physical and mental examinations for employees, set up psychological counseling hotlines, and provide professional psychological counseling for employees in need. At the same time, we will strengthen professional ethics and humanistic care education, guide employees to establish correct work values, and learn to relieve pressure.
In addition, China Eastern Airlines must also improve internal management, create a good working environment, eliminate job discrimination and mistreatment, and ensure that employees are treated with due respect at work.
Only when employees are physically and mentally healthy, aviation safety can be guaranteed, and passengers can take the flight with confidence. It is hoped that China Eastern Airlines will learn from this incident, pay attention to the physical and mental health of its employees, and set a good example for the industry.
