Civil pressurized aircraft have emergency exits....so what is the problem there?

The design of them will not allow bringing the exit doors inside as is done on some airliners and thus designing a pop-out exit door is going to be interesting I suppose. Also expensive and heavy....operative issue will be weight.

As long as the Oil Patch Clock and Weigh Scales remain standard as they are today....no problem getting the aircraft loaded.

The 165 pound Oily that looks like a Sumo Wrestler dragging a 40 pound Suitcase and 25 pound Toolbox....for a total weight of 230 pounds.....Nay Lads...no problem!

Getting off the ground might pose a small problem however!


Tcabot113....you convinced me finally.

Along with Jane-OH and Shell Management....you earned my "Ignore" tag

After all these years....you are exactly number three. You might ask yourself where the other two are now....and why they seem to be conspicuous by their absence.
