What is the second step in the Crew Coordination Steps?

• A. ID non-normal
• B. IAI
• C. QRC
• D. QRH

Answer: (A)

Identifying the non-normal condition is the next move because you must know exactly what is wrong before you can plan a proper response. When you label and describe the abnormality, everyone on the crew shares a common understanding of the situation, which speeds up communication, helps delegate tasks, and points you toward the right procedure. Only after you’ve identified what’s off do you turn to the appropriate resources (like the QRH or QRC) to guide the exact steps to take. The other items are tools or references used to support the response, not the immediate next action you take after noticing something isn’t right.
