华盛顿5月13日路透电 —— 美国国家运输安全委员会(NTSB)周三发布建议,要求改进飞行员应对座舱烟雾紧急情况的培训,此前2023年曾发生过类似事件。
该委员会援引了2023年12月西南航空(LUV.N)一架波音(BA.N)737 MAX航班的事故:当时一只飞鸟撞入发动机,座舱内迅速充满烟雾。NTSB表示,“如果此类事件发生在夜间或仪表飞行气象条件下,后果可能是灾难性的。”

西南航空未立即置评。
NTSB称,在这起西南航空航班事故中,从新奥尔良起飞的机组人员在数秒内舱内能见度急剧下降后,难以看清仪表和检查单。飞行员戴上了氧气面罩,完成了应急程序,宣布进入紧急状态并安全返回机场。机上139名乘客无人受伤。
NTSB表示,尽管美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)几乎每天都会收到座舱烟雾引发的空中紧急情况报告,但客运航空公司并未被要求开展贴合实际的座舱烟雾应急模拟培训。

NTSB称:“现有培训往往仅围绕烟雾事件进行口头讨论,而非开展能见度降低或工作负荷增加场景下的沉浸式模拟训练。”
该委员会建议FAA与行业合作,“为飞行员制定标准化、贴合实际的座舱烟雾应急模拟培训,并将该培训纳入其监督航司培训项目的指导文件中。”
2024年,FAA在召集审查委员会评估包括2023年事故在内的波音737 MAX发动机相关担忧后,选择不要求立即采取任何行动。
另一起类似事故发生在2023年3月西南航空的一架航班上,该航班从哈瓦那起飞,飞鸟撞击发动机后客舱充满烟雾。
波音于2024年2月发布公告,向机组人员通报严重发动机损坏可能引发的驾驶舱和客舱影响。

US airlines should improve pilot training for smoke in cockpit, NTSB says

WASHINGTON, May 13 (Reuters) – The National Transportation Safety Board on Wednesday recommended improving training for pilot preparedness for smoke-in-cockpit emergencies after a 2023 incident.
The board cited a December 2023 Southwest Airlines (LUV.N) flight of a Boeing (BA.N) 737 MAX after a bird flew into an engine and smoke rapidly filled the cockpit. “If such an event occurred at night or in instrument meteorological conditions, the consequences could be catastrophic,” the NTSB said.

Southwest did not immediately comment.
In the incident on the Southwest flight, the NTSB said the flight crew on departure from New Orleans had difficulty seeing instruments and checklist items as visibility deteriorated within seconds. Pilots donned oxygen masks, completed emergency procedures, declared an emergency and safely returned to the airport. None of the 139 people onboard were injured.
The NTSB said that although the Federal Aviation Administration receives nearly daily notifications of in-flight emergencies due to smoke in the cockpit, passenger airlines are not required to conduct realistic smoke-in-cockpit simulation training.

“Existing training often consists only of verbal discussion of a smoke event rather than immersive simulation involving reduced visibility or elevated workload,” the NTSB said.
The board recommended that the FAA work with industry to “develop standardized, realistic smoke-in-cockpit simulation training for pilots and incorporate that training into its guidance for overseeing airline training programs.”
In 2024, the FAA opted not to require any immediate action after convening a review board to consider concerns about Boeing 737 MAX engines including the 2023 incident.
Another incident occurred in a Southwest March 2023 flight that had departed Havana and in which a bird strike led to smoke filling the passenger cabin.
Boeing in February 2024 published a bulletin to inform flight crews of potential flight deck and cabin effects associated with severe engine damage.
