Which component is a Girt bar Indicator?

• A. Girt bar Indicators
• B. Arming Lever
• C. Emergency Placard
• D. Slight Light

Answer: (A)

The girt bar indicator provides the visual cue that the girt bar is properly engaged in the floor fittings when the door is armed. As the door is armed for evacuation, the girt bar hooks into the floor brackets, and the indicator displays a status (often a green light or visible change) to confirm that the bar is seated correctly. This confirmation is crucial because if the girt bar isn’t fully engaged, the slide may not deploy properly, compromising a safe evacuation. The arming lever is simply the control used to arm the door, not the status signal; an emergency placard isn’t related to the girt bar status, and a vague “slight light” isn’t a defined component. So the component that serves as the status indicator for the girt bar is the girt bar indicator.
