Bumpy Flight Emergency Priority List

When two warnings appear, public chat becomes a stall. This list is the argument-ender. It ranks what to touch first so the emergencies guide has a default order. It is not a lore document. It is a wipe-reduction chart.

S-tier: Keep the aircraft flying

If the plane is inverted, diving, or unmanned, nothing else matters. The Pilot stays in the seat. Someone else can lecture after the wings are level. A perfect medicine delivery into a crater is not a complete.

Solo players: finish the control input, then stand. Never the other way around.

S-tier: Engine and flight-system failures

If the warning names a part, a tool, or a system that keeps you in the air, it shares S with flying itself. Send the engineer. Do not send the whole lobby. One mover, one tool, one confirmation that the prompt died.

Fuel starvation sits here too, but it is usually a ground mistake. If you are already light, the Pilot conserves and looks for the earliest landing. There is no mid-air S-tier can of gas.

A-tier: Unconscious or injured passengers

These can end the complete even when the metal is fine. Cabin moves. Medicine first. The cabin crew page is the how-to; this line is the priority. If engineer and a downed passenger overlap, a four-stack splits. A two-stack does metal first if the plane is dying, then the passenger if the plane is stable.

B-tier: Comfort requests

Blankets, snacks, “I want to sit.” Real, and they stack, but they wait on S and A. Clear them on the circuit so they do not promote themselves into a failed cabin state. Do not pull the engineer off a nacelle for a blanket.

C-tier: Cosmetics, cameras, and curiosity

Someone wants a better angle. Someone wants to try the yoke. Someone wants to test a script. All C. After the route, sure. During a warning, no. The Scripts Hub is not an emergency tool.

Turbulence is a modifier, not a rank

Bumps do not get their own letter. They make every other job harder. Pilot flies quieter. Cabin holds, then resumes. Engineer does not invent repairs because the camera shook. If a real S or A warning appears inside the bumps, apply the list as usual.

BETA exceptions

If a prompt is clearly stuck after retries, drop it one letter and save the rest of the route. A soft-locked S-tier engine should not keep six people in a closet until the fuel hits zero. Call it, document it later on the BETA notes, and fly what still works.

How to call the list in voice

“S on the plane,” “S engine,” “A med,” “B blanket.” That vocabulary is faster than paragraphs. Teach it once with the friends guide and you will hear it for the rest of the night.

Use the list. Then go back to your lane. Priority is useless if everyone still runs at the same light. If chat will not adopt letters, type the job and the place: engine left, med aft, Pilot flying. Same list, fewer syllables.
