Which of the following numbers represents the FAK count on the 787-8?

• A. 2
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 3

Answer: (D)

First Aid Kit (FAK) count is the fixed number of FAKs installed on the aircraft, determined by the type design and regulatory requirements. For the 787-8, the standard configuration specifies three First Aid Kits, distributed to ensure accessibility in each cabin zone so crew can reach a kit quickly if needed. Having only two would risk insufficient coverage, while four or five would exceed the approved inventory for this airframe. The Emergency Medical Kit is a separate item and not included in the FAK count. So, the FAK count on the 787-8 is three.
