(2) The training must cover:
 (a) the importance of pre-flight briefings and communicating necessary safety information during the briefing (between the crew, or the operator and the crew); and
 (b) communication techniques and the use of common language and terminology; and
 (c) the necessary information regarding ground-based emergency response procedures that would enable crew members to effectively communicate with external agencies during abnormal and emergency situations; and
 (d) the importance of coordination between flight crew and cabin crew for operational safety when applying procedures, particularly in abnormal and emergency situations.

12.06  Flight crew—fire and smoke: initial training
 (1) Initial training for a flight crew member must include training in fire and smoke detection and suppression, including training in:
 (a) the importance of:
 (i) dealing promptly with flight deck and cabin emergencies involving fire and smoke; and
 (ii) correctly identifying the source of the fire; and
 (iii) taking specific actions necessary for coordination and assistance when fire or smoke is discovered; and
 (b) the classification of fires and the appropriate type of extinguishing agents for each classified type of fire; and
 (c) firefighting techniques for particular fire situations, including techniques for the application of extinguishing agents; and
 (d) the consequences of misapplication of extinguishing agents and of using extinguishing agents in a confined space; and
 (e) the effects of smoke in an enclosed area; and
           (f) the visual restrictions associated with using smoke protection equipment relevant to aviation.
 (2) On and after 2 December 2023, the training must also include practical training in firefighting that covers:
 (a) extinguishing a fire; and
 (b) using the firefighting equipment, specified for the purpose in the operator's exposition, in a smoke-filled (or simulated smoke-filled) environment.
Note 1: The practical training mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) is a live firefighting exercise and therefore must meet the requirements in subsections 13.09(2) and (3).
Note 2: The practical training mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) must meet the requirements in subsection 13.09(1).
Note 3: Subsection (2) does not require the firefighting equipment to be specific to a particular aeroplane type, since the requirement to use aeroplane‑specific type equipment is covered by conversion training and the 3‑yearly training requirements.

12.07  Flight crew—fatigue and fitness for duty
  Initial training for a flight crew member must include training on the following matters:
 (a) the requirements for continuing competence and fitness to operate as a flight crew member, including flight and duty time limitations and rest requirements;
 (b) alertness management, the physiological effects of fatigue, sleep physiology, circadian rhythm and time zone changes.

12.08  Flight crew—general-survival training
 (1) Initial training for a flight crew member must include training in survival methods on land and water appropriate to the operator's areas of operation.
 (2) The training
