C – captain, CP – co pilot, P – purser
C: What was that? This isn’t right!
CP: What’s happened?
C: Three circuit breakers have tripped. They’re showing a problem.
CP: Where’s the problem?
C: In one of the washrooms. Maybe the fan overheated.
CP: I’ll ask the purser to look into it.
C: I’ll try and reset the circuit breakers.
CP: OK?
P: Yes, hi, I’m getting reports of an unpleasant smell back here, coming from the rear washrooms, like an electrical burning smell. Some of the passengers are getting a little uncomfortable with it.
CP: Could you move the passengers away?
P: Sure, will do.
CP: Go have a look.
P: I’ll check it out now.
C: Why didn’t it set off the smoke detector? I’m not happy with this at all. Something’s wrong.
P: There was smouldering in the washroom. I don’t know if any wiring has come loose. I sprayed it with the fire extinguisher – I think it’s gone out.
CP: What do you think caused it?
P: I don’t know. Maybe the vacuum outlet overloaded. I couldn’t see where it was coming from. I’ll go back now and double check.
C: Yeah, go. We need to know the cause of the fire.
P: I’ll take my goggles just in case.
C: Yeah, we’ll put our masks on. Go back, but don’t get yourself incapacitated.
P: I can’t get back there.
CP: Why not?
P: The smoke’s too heavy.
CP: Are the passengers OK?
P: People are starting to have trouble breathing.
CP: We have to go down.
C: Initiating an emergency descent.
