Threat and Error Management provides strategies and tactics to help crews direct threats to safe flight operations and decrease the potential for crew error. The use of the assertive statement "Time Out" is intended to:
-Provide a clear warning sign of a deviation or loss of situational awareness
-Provide an opportunity to break the error chain before a mishap occurs
-Notify all crewmembers that someone sees the aircraft or crew departing from established guidelines, or briefed scenario, or that someone is simply uncomfortable with the developing situations
