Narrative:

Air interrupt due to smoke in cabin. Flight attendant advised cockpit crew of smoke in cabin. 2 pilots occupied the jump seat. The smoke odor and haze was apparent and thickening. Crew went on oxygen. Captain requested divert to nassau, cabin or cockpit fire/smoke checklist and the emergency landing checklist. The captain flew and ran the radios while the first officer ran the checklist. The captain also enlisted one of the jump seaters to pull approach plates and help as needed resulting in a 3 man crew using a variety of communication means. A night descent in the WX with oxygen masks on into an unplanned field with an unexpected third crew member led to poor communications. The captain noting an engine oil pressure EICAS message, observed low oil pressure and zero oil quantity during the descent called for the appropriate checklists. The right engine oil pressure engine fire damage shutdown and 1 engine approach and go around checklist were run. Also during this time, the flight attendant asked if the oxygen could be deployed as the smoke was becoming intolerable to the passenger. The first officer did not consult the checklist regarding this as oxygen for the passenger with smoke in the cabin is standard procedure on the military aircraft he flies. First officer advised the captain of intent to deploy the oxygen and upon perceiving a positive response did so. The normal checklists were run and aircraft was landed uneventfully at nassau. An emergency was not declared. The aircraft was taxied to the jetbridge, the passenger deplaned and taken by a subsequent aircraft to san juan.
