On the other hand, the door is harder to jettison unless you are the one sitting next to the handle.
If you are sitting adjacent to the main cabin door jettison handle for the AS332-series or the EC225, you are not sitting next to the door, but in the row forward of the door.
Ergo, if you are sitting next to the main cabin door, you are reliant on another passenger to operate the emergency jettison.
