A crew operating near loud machinery cannot reliably hear shouted updates. What is a good countermeasure agreed in advance?
- A.Shout louder and repeat messages several times
- B.Use radios or prearranged hand signals, and confirm important messages were received
- C.Rely on the video feed instead of crew communication
Correct answer
B. Use radios or prearranged hand signals, and confirm important messages were received
Why
Radios, agreed hand signals, and read-backs restore reliable communication when noise or distance defeats voice alone. Arranging them before flight prevents improvisation when an urgent warning is needed.
