Introduction

Initial New Hire 3 Hours


Recurrent 2 Hours
The following pages contain the Chautauqua Airlines Flight Crew Training. The content is
formatted into a lesson plan outline. The material is taken from the Appendix XIII and
Attachment 1 Documents.
The lesson is developed using video segments, Power Point presentations, and role play-
ing segments using each student as an active participant.
The goal is for each student to be able to understand the terrorist threats as very real
encroachments to our way of civilized life and to be able to counter their threats by being
equipped with the skills and abilities to offset their harmful actions. A written exam will cover
all presented material.
The indoctrination class will also include 3 additional videos.
• US Airways “Dragnet”
• US Airways “GSI is None”
• “The Ultimate Terror”
End of course written critique
This program may be taught by Chautauqua Airlines or an approved contractor. Proper
documentation in the computerized record keeping program will be accomplished upon
completion.

Section 1 Initial Training 3 Hours

A. Recognizing suspicious activities and determining


seriousness of an occurrence - RAA Common Strategy Video
1. Behavioral traits that a person may demonstrate prior to becoming a threat and
during the escalation/de-escalation phases of a threat.
2. How to link patterns of behavior to the security threat levels as described in
Common Strategy.
3. How to link patterns of behavior that could lead to the use of an actual or improvised
weapon.
4. Role-Playing - Common Strategy; see Appendix 1 for information.

B. Crew Communication and Coordination


1. Introduction
a. Communication and coordination is critical to the survival of all crewmembers
and passengers and overall control of the aircraft.
b. Tactical communications should permit direct communication from the flight
attendant to the cockpit.
2. Duties and responsibilities
a. PIC
b. SIC
c. FA
d. GSC

3. Pre-Flight Security Procedures


a. Verify identities of crewmembers and jump seat riders, and ensure the security
of crewmembers' baggage.
b. During pre-flight check of emergency equipment, the flight attendant should
ensure that suspect items are not present. If any such items are found, imme-
diately notify the captain and the Ground Security Coordinator (GSC), as
appropriate.
c. Crewmembers should check for any suspect or out of the ordinary objects,
inside and outside of the aircraft.
d. Ensure that the locations of all armed passengers, FAMs, and LEOs are known
to each other and the other crewmembers before the boarding door is closed.
e. Be alert to any signs of suspicious or unusual behavior. Signs of nervousness,
anxiety, hostility, or unresponsiveness can signal potential problems in the air.
It is illegal to transport a person who appears to be intoxicated or under the
influence of drugs.
4. Pre-Flight Briefing
a. Provides an opportunity for crewmembers to share any concerns they may
have.
b. Briefing must include safety and security topics. An effective briefing involves
every crewmember, LEO, and FAM, if aboard.
c. Captain should review with the crew the preferred method(s) of signaling
duress in the cabin.
d. Flight and cabin crews should coordinate flight deck entry signals prior to each
flight. Visual confirmation by a flight deck crewmember of any person legiti-
mately seeking to enter the flight deck is required.
5. Emergency Communications
a. Plain language is the most reliable form of communication during any
passenger disturbance, especially if a hijack is suspected.
b. When lockdown is in effect, face-to-face communication between the flight
crew and the flight attendant is suspended. The cabin interphone is the only
mode of communication required to be working between the passenger cabin
and the flight deck.

6. Transponder Code 7500


a. 7500 transponder code, a radio transmission, or ACARS message indicating
that a hijacking is in progress activates a major hijack response effort on the
ground to track and support you during the crisis.
b. Captain will decide when to select transponder code 7500 and when to land,
based on the nature and clarity of the information coming from the cabin.
c. Precise details such as the number of hijackers, their seat locations, the nature
and number of their weapons, and their exact demands may be crucial to those
attempting to make effective responses on the ground.
d. For voice transmissions, a pilot may want to don an oxygen mask with a built-
in microphone and turn off the cockpit speaker. In one instance, a hijacker
accepted the pilot's explanation that in emergency situations, one member of
the crew needed to be on oxygen.
e. Squawking 7500, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will cause authorities
on the ground to initiate hijack response procedures, which may include being
intercepted by a fighter aircraft.
7. Flaps
a. Flaps placement should follow normal procedures and flows. Their movement
or repositionind is not an evacuation critical item.
b. After landing ground security coordinators may request flaps down to facilitate
or assist law enforcement.
8. Support Available During Emergency
a. Scope of Assistance
b. FAA Emergency Operations center with networks to tactical, explosive and
negotiations experts, doctors
c. Airport Command Post
d. Local law enforcement
e. FBI
f. Other
g. Hostage negotiation
h. Armed Intervention
i. Behavior during assault on plane by law enforcement: need for flight attendants
to be aware that law enforcement does not know who they are and that they
must comply with instructions; general idea of what will happen in an assault.
j. Victim (hostage) reaction and assistance
k. Stockholm Syndrome awareness briefing
l. Post-resolution procedures, e.g., FBI debriefing
m. Press/media interface

C. Use of Protective Devices Assigned to Crewmembers


There is nothing currently available to the standard crew member. The only exception to
this is the FFDO.

D. Use of Restraint Devices Assigned to Crewmembers


There is nothing currently available to the crew. Consider the use of belts, neck ties, panty-
hose, or anything else that could be produced by a passenger to restrain an individual.

E. Psychology of Terrorists
How to cope with terrorist behavior and passenger responses:
1. Recognition of hijackers/terrorists traits
a. Intelligence indicates that determined terrorist groups are operating in almost
every continent, with no single purpose or common physical characteristics.
b. May not subject a person in air transportation to discrimination on the basis of
race, color, national origin, religion, sex or ancestry.
c. Universally accepted psychological profile of a terrorist does not currently exist,
certain behavioral patterns stand out.
1) Any passenger who is unduly nervous, or the opposite, sullen and distant,
should arouse the crew's suspicion.
2) Any passenger with an unusual interest in the flight deck, the flight crew, or
the cabin crew, should arouse suspicion.
3) History has shown that during the first 45 minutes and the last 45 minutes of
the flight is when a hijack attempt is most likely.
2. Psychology of passenger response during various security threat situations
a. Intimidation is a primary tool of the terrorist in causing submissive and
compliant behavior by crew and passengers.
b. Alternately intimidating and reassuring a victim, a terrorist can cause the Stock-
holm Syndrome to occur.
1) Stockholm Syndrome - the victim actually sympathizes with the terrorist.
2) Expect it in a hijack or other terrorist action, and resist it when they see it in
effect.
3) It generally takes quite some time to develop, and is most likely to occur
during an extended standoff situation.

REV. 3, 1 MAY 2005 1-4

Chapter 1 Training Instructor Outline
Section 1 Initial Training 3 Hours
Volume 7

c. Intimidation and the Stockholm Syndrome do not change the underlying math
- crew and passengers will usually outnumber any hijack team by a great
margin.
d. Strength in numbers, favoring the crew and passengers so long as they are not
paralyzed by intimidation or subverted by the Stockholm Syndrome.
e. Able Bodied Passengers - ABPs
1) ABPs may overreact or their adrenaline could cause them to become overly
aggressive.
2) Crewmembers should direct and control the actions of the ABPs to the best
of their abilities.
3) Use firm commands to elicit help from the ABPs, and to direct their actions.

F. Flight Deck Procedures and Maneuvers to Defend an Aircraft


1. Common Strategy Guidance
a. Corporate/Government Support
1) Get the communication chain going
2) Dispatch will play an important role
b. Aircraft maintenance and system specialists
1) Specific areas of expertise comes into focus

3. Pre-Flight Security Procedures


a. Verify identities of crewmembers and jump seat riders, and ensure the security
of crewmembers' baggage.
b. During pre-flight check of emergency equipment, the flight attendant should
ensure that suspect items are not present. If any such items are found, imme-
diately notify the captain and the Ground Security Coordinator (GSC), as appro-
priate.
c. Crewmembers should check for any suspect or out of the ordinary objects,
inside and outside of the aircraft.
d. Ensure that the locations of all armed passengers, FAMs, and LEOs are known
to each other and other crewmembers before the boarding door is closed.
e. Be alert to any signs of suspicious or unusual behavior. Signs of nervousness,
anxiety, hostility, or unresponsiveness can signal potential problems in the air.
It is illegal to transport a person who appears to be intoxicated or under the influ-
ence of drugs.
4. Pre-Flight Briefing
a. Provides an opportunity for crewmembers to share any concerns they may
have.
b. Briefing must include safety and security topics. An effective briefing involves
every crewmember, LEO, and FAM, if aboard.
c. Captain should review with the crew the preferred method(s) of signaling duress
in the cabin.
d. Flight and cabin crews should coordinate flight deck entry signals prior to each
flight. Visual confirmation by a flight deck crewmember of any person legiti-
mately seeking to enter the flight deck is required.
5. Emergency Communications
a. Plain language is the most reliable form of communication during any
passenger disturbance, especially if a hijack is suspected.
b. When lockdown is in effect, face-to-face communication between flight crew
and the flight attendant is suspended. The cabin interphone is the only mode of
communication required to be working between the passenger cabin and the
flight deck.

6. Transponder Code 7500


a. 7500 transponder code, a radio transmission, or ACARS message indicating
that a hijacking is in progress activates a major hijack response effort on the
ground to track and support you during the crisis.
b. Captain will decide when to select transponder code 7500 and when to land,
based on the nature and clarity of the information coming from the cabin.
c. Precise details such as the number of hijackers, their seat locations, the nature
and number of their weapons, and their exact demands may be crucial to those
attempting to make effective responses on the ground.
d. For voice transmissions, a pilot may want to don an oxygen mask with a built-
in microphone and turn off the cockpit speaker. In one instance, a hijacker
accepted the pilot's explanation that in emergency situations, one member of
the crew needed to be on oxygen.
e. Squawking 7500, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will cause authorities
on the ground to initiate hijack response procedures, which may include being
intercepted by a fighter aircraft.
7. Flaps
a. Flaps placement should follow normal procedures and flows. Their movement
or repositioning is not an evacuation critical item.
b. After landing ground security coordinators may request flaps down to facilitate
or assist law enforcement.

C. Use of Protective Devices Assigned to Crewmembers


There is nothing currently available to the standard crew member. The only exception to
this is the FFDO. This may be modified at a later date.

D. Use of Restraint Devices Assigned to Crewmembers


There is nothing currently available to the crew. Consider the use of belts, neck ties, panty-
hose, or anything else that could be produced by a passenger to restrain an individual. This
may be modified at a later date.

E. Psychology of Terrorists
How to cope with terrorist behavior and passenger responses:
1. Recognition of hijackers/terrorists traits
a. Intelligence indicates that determined terrorist groups are operating in almost
every continent, with no single purpose or common physical characteristics.
b. May not subject a person in air transportation to discrimination on the basis of
race, color, national origin, religion, sex or ancestry.
c. Universally accepted psychological profile of a terrorist does not currently exist,
certain behavioral patterns stand out.
1) Any passenger who is unduly nervous, or the opposite, sullen and distant,
should arouse the crew's suspicion.
2) Any passenger with an unusual interest in the flight deck, the flight crew, or
the cabin crew, should arouse suspicion.
3) History has shown that during the first 45 minutes and the last 45 minutes of
the flight is when a hijacking attempt is most likely.
2. Psychology of passenger response during various security threat situations
a. Intimidation is a primary tool of the terrorist in causing submissive and
compliant behavior by crew and passengers.
b. Alternately intimidating and reassuring a victim, a terrorist can cause the Stock-
holm Syndrome to occur.
1) Stockholm Syndrome - the victim actually sympathizes with the terrorist.
2) Expect it in a hijack or other terrorist action, and resist it when they see it in
effect.
3) Generally it takes quite some time to develop, and is most likely to occur
during an extended standoff situation.
c. Intimidation and the Stockholm Syndrome do not change the underlying math
- crew and passengers will usually outnumber any hijack team by a great
margin.
d. Strength in numbers, favoring the crew and passengers so long as they are not
paralyzed by intimidation or subverted by the Stockholm Syndrome.

3. Able Bodied Passengers - ABPs


a. ABPs may overreact or their adrenaline could cause them to become overly
aggressive.
b. Crewmembers should direct and control the actions of the ABPs to the best of
their abilities.
c. Use firm commands to elicit help from the ABPs, and to direct their actions.

F. Proper Conduct of a Cabin Search for Deadly and Dangerous


Weapons
1. Preflight aircraft search policy and procedures, including catering procedures and
likely areas of an aircraft that may conceal a weapon or improvised explosive
device.
2. Identification of Deadly and Dangerous Weapons
a. Identification of weapons, e.g., weapons that have been broken down into
components
1) May be difficult due to limited knowledge
2) Small handgun
3) Knives
4) Sharpened lexan material, etc.
b. Identification of bombs and flammable devices
1) Describe as near as possible
2) Is the item one compact unit
3) Is the item attached to a person or stowed
4) What is the appearance of the flammable device
5) What is the method of ignition
c. Identification of chemical and biological threats
1) Perhaps the hardest to detect
2) Easily concealed in carry-on baggage
3) Can easily be left behind after passengers have deplaned. Search/inspect
overhead compartments.
4) Configuration of device may appear ordinary
5) Danger comes from rapid atomized potential

Appendix 1
Common Strategy - Role Playing
As required by the Homeland Security Administration, Chautauqua Airlines will use role
playing to further enhance crew understanding of all security levels. Appendix 1 provides
examples of the Security Levels during each phase of aircraft operation. All levels are cov-
ered throughout the course either during role playing exercises, Power Point presentations,
or class discussion. However, due to time constraints; only one situational role playing
exercise is used.(i.e., the role playing level might be level 1 during taxi, followed by a dis-

Least Risk Bomb Location (LRBL)

Section 1 Required Materials


A simulated explosive device.
A mock bomb concealed in a shoebox or similar shaped container, will contain the three
required components of an explosive device - power source, initiator, and explosive (PIE).
• P - Battery, ie. 9 Volt, will be the power source
• I - A mock initiator will be wired to a clock.
• E - Red tube items, candles or similar shaped items, will be taped together as
the explosive.
The Chautauqua Airlines Training Department will attempt to obtain additional updated
technical information and assistance from local law enforcement. Such material and data
would be used to only supplement other required presentations and is not a course require-
ment.

Section 2 Class Participation:


Students will be required to discuss the importance of each component and how they can
be concealed. The students will discuss the LRBL location on the aircraft they operate as
well as the importance of the location. It must be emphasized that protection of the cockpit
is the first priority. The cockpit crew would never leave the flight deck to move any device.

Section 1 (NORAD) INTERCEPT PROCEDURES
Volume 7

Appendix 3
NORAD Interception Procedures For
Suspected Hijack
Interception procedures for peacetime operations are public information and are published
in the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM), Chapter 5, Air Traffic Procedures, Section 6,
National Security and Interception Procedures. For security reasons, the AIM does not
publish details of interception procedures during times of increased states of readiness,
such as defense emergency or hijack.
The information contained in this appendix relates to interception procedures for suspected
hijack. It is provided to the TSA/FAA by the North American Aerospace Defense Command
(NORAD) as general information for reference in crew training. Because of the sensitive
nature of NORAD's interception procedures for hijack those procedures may be changed
at any time without notice.

Section 1 (NORAD) INTERCEPT PROCEDURES


Although NORAD's mission of defending the North American continent from aerial threats
has not changed, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center twin-towers and the Pentagon
highlighted a new category of threat. In this post-September 11 environment, NORAD's
hijack role has changed significantly. Instead of merely shadowing hijacked aircraft,
NORAD fighters must now be prepared to shoot down aerial threats if the National Com-
mand Authorities (NCA) orders them to do so.
This appendix briefly outlines the likely actions NORAD fighter pilots will take when inter-
cepting a track-of-interest (TOI).
• Generally, the first step in any civilian aircraft intercept is notification by the FAA,
TSA or other government agency of an aircraft operating abnormally. The
notification is passed through direct links between the government and military
agencies.
• Although the FAA may ask for assistance, it is the responsibility of the military and
government security agencies to determine the type of assistance required,
including intercept of the aircraft.
• NORAD fighters will begin the intercept from either an airborne or ground alert
posture.

REV. 3, 1 MAY 2005 APX 3-1


SECURITY TRAINING MANUAL
Appendix 3
Section 1 (NORAD) INTERCEPT PROCEDURES
Volume 7

• As the intercept begins two important actions occur:


• A secure conference call including key civilian and military decision-makers is
convened.
• NORAD fighters start flying towards the TOI while the controlling agency
attempts to clear other aircraft traffic from the area and points out other aircraft
in the area to the responding fighters.
• Fighter pilots will comply with prevention of inadvertent Traffic Collision Avoidance
System (TCAS) initiation procedures.
• Fighter pilots will fly one of two intercept profiles:
• Mission ID: Fighter intercept places the fighters close enough to the TOI for
identification by type and/or other characteristics as directed by the controlling
agency. Although the intent is to remain covert, people on board the TOI may see
the fighters.
• Mission Shadow: Fighter intercept places the fighters in a covert position behind the
TOI. People on board the TOI will not see the fighters.
• Fighters will not normally proceed inside of 500 feet to the TOI unless the controlling
agency requests an action requiring them to be closer. Proceeding inside of 500
feet will not occur unless the fighter pilot can insure flight safety is not compromised.
• After the fighters have successfully joined on the TOI, the fighters may be directed
to divert the TOI. Diversion actions include:
• Attempting radio contact with the TOI on assigned frequencies to include 121.5.
Fighter aircraft not VHF radio capable will attempt contact through the controlling
agency.
• Visual signals from the fighters to the TOI using International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO) Standard Intercept Signals.
• When directed by Commander, NORAD, fighters will fly in front of and slightly
below the TOI and dispense warning flares.
- The warning flares do not represent a flight safety issue to the TOI.
- The desired action from the TOI is to turn in the direction of the flares.
• If the TOI appropriately responds to diversion attempts, NORAD fighters will escort
the TOI through safe landing. With the TOI safely on the ground, fighter pilots will
communicate their departure intentions to the controlling agency so as not to alarm
the TOI's crew.
• If the TOI ignores diversion attempts and is deemed a threat to protected people or
infrastructure by the NCA, the fighter pilots may be ordered to shoot down the TOI.
• The primary decision-making authority to shoot down the TOI resides with
President, Vice President, or Secretary of Defense.

REV. 3, 1 MAY 2005 APX 3-2


SECURITY TRAINING MANUAL
Appendix 3
Section 1 (NORAD) INTERCEPT PROCEDURES
Volume 7

• In cases where time and conditions do not exist for NCA direction, Commander,
NORAD or his designated alternate have been given the authority to direct the
shoot down of the TOI.
• THE FIGHTER PILOT NEVER HAS AUTONOMOUS SHOOT DOWN AUTHORITY
AND WILL NOT FIRE ON THE TOI UNLESS A VALID AND AUTHENTICATED
ORDER IS RECEIVED.
• Every opportunity will be given to the people on board the TOI to regain control of
the aircraft or stop the hijack attempt prior to shooting down the TOI.
The seriousness of NORAD fighters intercepting a TOI cannot be overemphasized. This is
the first step in a potential shoot down. It is imperative that the TOI's crew immediately com-
plies with direction from either the controlling agency or fighters. Abrupt TOI maneuvers
will not be used as criteria for shoot down unless this places the TOI's flight path in close
proximity to protected people and points. The shoot down decision represents a difficult
choice in precluding additional loss of life through a terrorist attack.

Basic Self Defense BST Approach
Introduction:
The FAA has only recommended training crews in very basic self defense maneuvers.
Chautauqua has elected use of the BST Approach. The best way to protect yourself is
remember the following key words.
• Breathing
• Space
• Throat
The BST Approach would be needed at threat levels 2, 3 and 4. Basic self defense maneu-
vers such as BST Approach, should always analyze the exact threat level.
Consider the following levels:
• At threat level 2, the hijacker is physically assaulting or threatening you. Going for
the throat, will stop them and with the help of ABPs, you’ll be able to subdue them
upon landing.
• At threat level 3 and 4, you are usually dealing with a weapon. The most important
thing to remember, our goal is not to take the weapon away, but to go for the throat.
In all of the Hollywood movies, you always see a fight over the weapon. Whoever
has control of the weapon will win. Now, let’s talk about reality. We want you to grab
the weapon, but only to move it out of harm’s way (away from the kill zone and then,
go for the throat). After incapacitating the hijacker, you will be able to take the
weapon away.
• Kill Zone: center of your body from head to waist. If the attacker comes up behind
you, do you think he/she will be expecting you to grab the blade of the knife or barrel
of the gun.
If the attacker does not use a gun or knife maybe they have a necktie and are trying
to strangle you. Don’t try to pull away because that will only tighten the rope around
your neck. Simply turn around and face them, so they are pulling on the back of your
neck. Then, go for the throat!
If you are sitting down (cockpit or pax seat), you will not be able to turn around completely.
Make an effort to turn your body and reach back and pinch the throat.

Section 1 BST Approach


Breathe:
• I will breathe deeply when I am afraid. I am not panicking or freezing, just holding
my breath
• I will get a grip for improved blood flow
• I will visualized my loved ones, an attack on me is a direct attack against them
Space:
• I will protect and defend my personal space.
• Breathe and make eye contact
• If necessary use harsh language. This will alert nearby ABP's
• Breathe… Speak loudly, even yell.
Go for the throat:
• I have the right to fight for my life
• Breathe
• Speak loudly - Yell
• Hit first when my "space" is invaded
• Strike with the intention to cause injury
• Go for the throat
• Avoid getting caught from behind
