Definição2
IMSAFE is a mnemonic used by some aircraft pilots to assess their fitness to fly. The IMSAFE checklist assesses whether “I am free from factors that could affect my physical or mental capacity to operate safely”. Although the job function is different, the IMSAFE checklist is equally applicable to cabin crew.

Contexto
The IMSAFE checklist, which is an acronym for Illness, Medication, Stress, Alcohol, Fatigue, and Emotion, can help a pilot identify these hazards. [Figure 3- 3] Note that some publications combine Emotion with Stress as the “S” in IMSAFE and leave the “E” to remind pilots about “Eating.” Since proper nutrition and hydration affects wellness and safety, a pilot planning a long flight should consider appropriate food and water intake and supply.
