Canadian Airlines Boeing 737 Combi Flight Attendant Training Video

This video produced by the now defunct Canadian Airlines details for flight attendants the operation of the doors, air stairs as well as other emergency protocol for the Boeing 737 combi.I hope you enjoy the video and feel free to leave comments.

This Aircraft (C-GSPW) is still in service! it is now owned by Air Inuit!

[@dennyhuang240]

and it operated for pacific western and canadian north when canadian owned it

[@bambamisgoofyy]

@@dennyhuang240 fales pacific wastern was only operrating this 737 for 1 year before the shut down and aircanda took over with their remaining fleet

[@dennyhuang240]

Bam Amador according to my research, C-GSPW was delivered to Pacific Western in November of ‘81, the to Eastern Provincial Airlines in April of ‘82, then to Canadian in April of ‘87, then Air Canada in April of ‘01, then to Air Noterra in November of the same year, then Canadian North in October of 2004, and finally to Air Inuit in January of 2018. so technically we’re both correct

[@bambamisgoofyy]

@@dennyhuang240 ummm that not what my dad said he was a pilot for canadien airline so

[@dennyhuang240]

Bam Amador well then again I might be wrong so I’ll let you be.

[@CoastalAutoReactionCAR]

I want to know how we track down the guy they used for the majority of this would love to hear if he remembers filming it!

[@dennyhuang240]

the asian male flight attendant was a pilot and an attendant lol

Typical overachievers….

I could have used the info about the aft stairs. A long time ago, I opened the stairs to take a "saddle" down to the ramp. When I went to close them they bounced like it did when the video show you how to set the stairs. My airline never taught that. There is a reset when you put it in emergency mode, and thats what I had to use when the stairs jammed half way down. Freaked out because I thought I was going to get in trouble. But it worked. Ramp came up and asked if I got it taken care of, the same week they had used the stairs for the same kind of situation and had to have someone push on the outside of the door with a broom because of the bouncing after it retracted

[@dennyhuang240]

man, what airlines did you work for?

[@bmwm750]

There are no aft stairs on any 737 variant.....

[@philippeseguin1771]

@@bmwm750 do your research. i can tell your first hand experience that some do!

[@thihal123]

What does that mean, to reset the air stairs

[@pureawkwardness415]

One of the few 737s that had seperated hatches.

I worked for Canadian in 1989. Was not impressed with their management. But I do remember the 737-200s. This video looks to be about 1988 or 1989.

[@lucasaccount573]

I'd be cool if air Canada brought pack cp air as a replacement for express ,rouge and jazz

[@thedman1992]

You never know what might happen!

[@viscount757]

Re the title, the video was intended to cover all CP 737-200s, not just the combi. Combi differences are covered towards the end. Some of the cabin footage is from all passenger aircraft.

[@guitarsingaporeRapture]

The B-737 at the start of the video must be a really old model. 0:34. Just look at the shape of its jets.

[@thedman1992]

Yep I believe that this combi was a 737-200 with the JT8-D Engines you usually see on DC-9 and MD-80 series aircraft.

[@smwca123]

Good old "Fat Albert". Canadian had several different versions, each inherited from its various ancestors: CP Air (-217; Boeing assigned a unique code to each airline; for the record, Air Canada's is 33); Pacific Western (275); Nordair (242); Quebecair (296); Eastern Provincial (2E1); Transair (2A9). One could easily deduce the parent fleet from the aircraft registration; ex-CPs were usually C-GCPx or C-FxCP; former PWs were C-GxPW; former Nordairs, Quebecairs, and so on usually included ND, QB, or EP. For the first 2 years or so I could easily tell the former CP and PWA aircraft interiors. Former CPs had 2-class seating, dark blue upholstery, generous seat pitch, and the front of the middle seat backs in economy often had a pull-down table, a holdover from the Attaché service. Former PWs were all-economy with gold upholstery, and a much tighter pitch, like flying Greyhound buses. Most flights I took in those were short enough (YEG-YVR or YYJ-YYC) that I didn't mind. About the cockpit emergency exit windows: I remember reading about a trainee cabin attendant asking why they couldn't use those windows. The instructor's reply: "Because when all hell breaks loose, they'll be full of pilot butts!"

[@BourkeKristian1]

guitar singapore travels it is the Boeing 737-200

[@bmwm750]

Its “jets?” Last I checked they’re called “engines”....

[@MidnightVisions]

@14:04 The flotation characteristics of the 737-200 puts the rear doors half way under water, that's why they can't be used in a water evacuation. If they were opened, the aircraft would rapidly flood before the passengers could evacuate.

[@jst7714]

What was the change for the combi they mentioned?

[@angiewebber3439]

omg takes me back to training in 1988.

[@thedman1992]

Glad I could bring back some memories.

At 9:49 they never said to move the red warning strap on the door to the disarmed position. In the next shot, it is shown as in the disarmed position.

[@jfmezei]

I flew on the CP 737s a number of times, including the combis to the Arctic. Quite surprised that passengers instructed to jump into water and just hold on to the slide. Always expected slides to be used as rafts and hold all passengers. Also surprised they don't mention any safety expiment for use in flights that go above a certain latitude. (blankets and mroe survival gear).

TBH, the music they use kinda sounds like the music you hear on the news.

[@staycgirlsitsgoingdown2]

What would they do in the combi for water landings? The back doors where the seats are would be below the water, there’s no way they would be able herd everyone through a full cargo area to the front doors before the plane filled with water

[@sammy2745]

Remember they're Canadian, they're used to the cold right?

[@pureawkwardness415]

This was the old model, they don't have additional life boats.

[@BourkeKristian1]

It depends on where it does it’s landinf

thedman1992 do you have Canadian, business and first-class seat pics?

[@johnyuen]

9:48 he forgot to remove the red flag

[@lukeelse2038]

John Matthew Yuen haha lol, and this was meant as a training video, surely they’d check this beforehand 😂😂

[@theboardshorts]

It's because that was the Emergency Opening part of the video. First they showed opening an armed door with slide. Then they showed opening without slide. For example if the wheels have collapsed and the door is at ground level, the slide would get in the way. You would not want to waste time moving the red strap in an emergency.

[@nicholasscopoli914]

Are there any more flight attendant videos?

[@valerie80yearsago90]

+William Chan They what?

[@thedman1992]

I wish I had some more, I upload everything I have as I get it.

[@jayo_z]

Why would the 2L door need to be reset?

[@philippeseguin1771]

FA here, not mechanic... so just my personal opinion on using it often... when it is opened in emergency mode, the restraint mechanism is basically disabled to allow the stairs to drop fast. so you basically need to get the stairs re-hooked on the mechanism to be able to use on normal operation mode again..

[@viscount757]

The 737-200C combi model (cargo at the front, passengers at the rear, with movable cabin divider permitting several configurations from all-passenger to all-cargo, had a rear door hinged at the bottom and airstairs that folded down and were stowed inside the cabin. All-passenger aircraft just had a normal rear door hinged at the side with airstairs only at the front which were stowed inside the fuselage under the cabin floor. The combis also had the front airstairs.

[@calumthomson2108]

is it the 737-200 combi

[@thedman1992]

Yes it is.

[@pureawkwardness415]

They didn't even use the back doors for water.

[@philippeseguin1771]

nope, this aircraft is tail heavy and the aft doors would be below the water line. the aft doors are only used in water if the plane is in a combi configuration where the overwing and forward exits are not available

[@tl1146]

what if someone tried to release the stairs in flight?

[@juk-hw5lv]

The airflow will not let them.

[@philippeseguin1771]

trust me.... the outside airflow will prevent anything from happening. to even unseal the door you would need super strength as the door moves up and out before the seal is broken and the outside pressure won't allow that to happen. same as any doors, really. that aircraft door mechanism is already hard to maneuver on regular operation (the handle is on a very strong metal spring) so you need a lot of strength and control to pull it down to the normal opening position or you'll go too far down and you will open in emergency mode!

[@BourkeKristian1]

That slide doesn’t have those small barriers instead it just puffs

[@peterpham5403]

Umm why do you need to check both doors? The gate is only on one side.

[@pauljordan4452]

I suppose for emergencies.

Lol a 747 double lane slide takes 3 seconed lol 737 has a single lane and it still slower lol lol lol

[@philippeseguin1771]

the slide pack only has one small gas cylinder, about the size of a 202 Litres medical oxygen tank... so it won't empty out and fill the slide as fast...

[@bambamisgoofyy]
