1 Stay Calm

The first response to any high-pressure situation in aviation should be to remain calm. Your ability to think clearly is paramount, and panic can cloud judgment. Take deep breaths and focus on the issue at hand. Remember your training; you've been prepared for these scenarios. A calm demeanor will also reassure passengers and crew, and it's a vital first step in any emergency protocol. The goal is to assess the situation rationally and proceed with the appropriate action.

The most important thing to do when faced with a high pressure situation is to remain calm. This will assist in being able to analyze the situation and think clearly. Some situations call for quick thinking and decision making and flexibility since some scenarios may not necessarily be covered in any documented procedures. I would also inform my team members of the situation at hand to help in getting ideas on how to address the situation. One would greatly benefit from the team's ideas by having an open mind.

Stay calm? But how? Everyone tells you in a high pressure situation to stay calm, but never tell you how. Staying calm is a matter of training, exposure and experience. Each time you experience high stress situations, you get to recognize your response a little better and eventually you learn to control that response, and look for clues to explain the situation and deal with it. Personally, I take a deep breath, 'step back' and assess. A process of Stop, Assess, Plan. The act of stopping allows time to control the stress response which naturally leads to answering the question 'What just happened?'.

2 Assess Quickly

Once calm, quickly assess the situation. What's the nature of the emergency? Is it a technical failure, a medical issue, or severe weather? Identifying the problem allows you to apply the correct procedures. Time is critical, so this assessment must be swift but thorough. Use all available resources, including instruments and crew members, to get a complete picture. This will inform your decision-making and help prioritize the next steps to take.

There are times when action is required to be immediate. Such as in terrain critical situations. Something happens the immediate action has to be to get the aircraft on the ground safely, or avoid the ground if the ground being too close to the aircraft is the problem. At all times, fly the plane.

3 Communicate Clearly

Clear communication is essential in high-pressure scenarios. You need to convey information accurately and concisely to your crew, passengers, and ground control. Use aviation communication protocols, like the standard phraseology of aviation language, to avoid misunderstandings. Remember, miscommunication can exacerbate an already tense situation. Keep everyone informed as you work through the problem, ensuring that all parties understand their roles and the actions being taken.

Working in emergency services the biggest problem we have is people not being able to tell us that they need help. If you can't tell people you need help, no-one is coming to help you. There may very well be someone who can provide advise and direction, who is not caught up in the emotion of the situation and can see the bigger picture. This is another issue we deal with, that is the stress response causing tunnel vision and the people involved can not see the simple solution.

4 Follow Protocols

Every high-pressure situation in aviation has a corresponding set of protocols designed to maximize safety and efficiency. These are your guideposts. Whether it's an emergency landing procedure or a rapid descent, following protocol ensures that nothing is overlooked. Trust in your training and in the procedures that have been established through years of experience and analysis. They're designed to work under pressure and have been proven to do so.

5 Utilize Teamwork

You're never alone in these situations. Aviation is a team effort, and every member has a role to play when under pressure. Rely on your colleagues' expertise and be ready to delegate tasks when appropriate. A co-pilot, flight attendant, or air traffic controller can provide vital support. Teamwork can be the difference between an effective response and a chaotic one. Work together, support each other, and use the collective strength of your team to navigate the challenge.

6 Adapt as Needed

Even with the best planning and protocols, sometimes the unexpected occurs. Be prepared to adapt. Flexibility can be just as important as following procedures. If the situation changes or if an initial response isn't working, be ready to think on your feet. This might mean devising a new plan or modifying existing protocols to address the unique aspects of the situation. Your ability to adapt could save lives and prevent further complications.

Not every procedure and protocol is going to match every situation. When assessing and planning it is important to break down the response into smaller, ordered steps, then apply the procedure and protocol for each of those steps. Re-assess the situation to ensure everything is behaving as expected. If it's not plan another response.
