During your preflight check of the Emergency Medical Kit (EMK), you see a yellow seal. What else must be included in the kit?

When you see a yellow seal on the Emergency Medical Kit (EMK) during your preflight check, it indicates that the kit has been accessed or damaged in some way, and thus certain items may be missing or used. In this circumstance, it is crucial to have a letter of exemption for any items that are missing or used. This letter serves as documentation, ensuring that the airline has communicated with the relevant authorities regarding the status of the kit and any missing components. It helps to maintain compliance with regulations and ensures that there is a record of the kit’s status for future checks or audits.

Other options, while they may seem relevant, do not fulfill the requirement indicated by the presence of the yellow seal. Assembling a new kit or acquiring a list of items individual in the existing kit does not address the immediate concern of ensuring that there is proper documentation for what is missing. Understanding these protocols is essential for maintaining safety and readiness in emergency situations onboard an aircraft.
