Show answer and solution
Answer: (B) QPSR
After noticing the fault (S1), the pilot first declares the emergency (Q). The tower then responds by clearing the runway (P). Fire engines get ready (S) before the aircraft lands (R), and S6 concludes the account. So the order is QPSR. Starting with P is the trap, as the tower cannot clear anything before the call.
