@Good Businss Sense,
Thanks for the reply. Clearly at 35000 feet they're not providing threat of ay type; I was wondering if in the event off an issue at lower altitude...
Then again, my guess (I emphasise that word) is that in the event of even the beginnings of an incident present themselves,the CC are trained to make sure all exits (including over-wing) are clear as a priority action.
I seem to recall reading somewhere about the "wheels-up" landing in Warsaw, where the CC even checked with the passengers over the wings that they were both calm and capable.
Sorry if my question came across as silly; I can understand the frustration of not just pilots but cabin crew when these type of stories hit the news-stands.
We SLF put our lives in your hands every time we fly, and the fact that I'm able to post shows that that relationship of trust is justified. Hell, the guys in the nose of the thing has every reason to get there safely too.
