Which of the following is included as an emergency scenario?

• A. Armed attack
• B. Structural fire
• C. Medical emergency
• D. Bird strike

Answer: (A)

Emergency scenarios are events that trigger the airport’s coordinated response and, in many training materials, include security threats that require rapid access control, lockdowns, and coordination with law enforcement. An armed attack fits this category because it is a deliberate violent threat to people and assets, demanding immediate activation of the emergency plan, incident command, and collaboration with police and emergency services to protect lives and contain the threat. The other options describe serious incidents handled by standard fire, medical, or wildlife response procedures and are not typically classified as security emergency scenarios requiring the same integrated security response.
