What do you do if slide pack falls into cabin?

• A. Let it stay
• B. Return to slide compartment
• C. Notify captain only
• D. Push or kick it out of the aircraft

Answer: (D)

The situation tests how you handle an item that has intruded into the cabin but belongs in a fixed position near the exit. A slide pack belongs in its door compartment, and having it loose in the cabin can obstruct an evacuation or cause unintended deployment of the slide. The appropriate action is to return the slide pack to its compartment, re-seat it if safe, and ensure the door is properly secured. This keeps the exit path clear and preserves the integrity of the emergency system.

Leaving it where it is creates a hazard, and simply notifying the captain or pushing it out of the aircraft could cause more danger or improper operation. If you can’t safely re-seat it, inform the captain and follow established procedures.
