Parabellum

Please will you provide hard evidence to support the wild assertion that you assume to be true and from which you build your subsequent 'logical' point?

I say again, any person who is not a member of the operating crew is a passenger.



'Wild Assertion" indeed, you are starting to make a fool of yourself, having previously made a couple of fair points. If you, the travelling passenger, are by the exit, an emergency occurs and you are the one to open the door are you suggesting that you will either remain in the burning aircraft or stand on the wing outside the burning aircraft and assist other passengers to escape?
You, sir, will be the first one to be out the door, (with essential brief case), and across the grass as soon as your happy little legs will take you.
Professional aircrew know that having opened an exit their job is to get the passengers out, not just run away.

Any person who is not an operating member of the crew but is a trained professional in escape and evacuation of an aircraft, as a passenger, is going to be a whole lot more use than you.
