Identify flight-line equipment.

Identification should include

• personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • ear (hearing) safety and headsets
  • eye (vision) safety (i.e., safety glasses, goggles)
  • safety shoes
  • gloves
  • visibility vest/reflective clothing
• ground support equipment (e.g., air conditioning units, electrical units)
• marshalling equipment.

Process/Skill Questions:

• At what decibel level and exposure time does hearing loss occur?
• Why are safety shoes required, and how are they constructed?
• Why does the ground crew wear reflective clothing?
• How is marshalling equipment used by flight-line personnel to improve safety and efficiency at an airport?
