If one cannot fit through the Cat Door....would it mean you are too large or the Cat Door is too small?

If One immediately responds it is the person that would show a reluctance to consider the Escape Exits might be too small as the design criteria might have been improperly researched or that the original design criteria did not envision the addition of Survival suits and all the other gear folks have to wear for North Sea flights.

If one questions the size of the exits....then that opens up a really really huge Bucket of Worms!

The Manufacturers, Operators, Authorities,and Oil Companies are confronted with a huge project to arrive at larger, safer, more effective Escape Exits, revamped seating, and all sorts of obstacles to ensuring the Passengers and Crew can escape during a water landing.

So.....is there any guess where the efforts to remedy this situation shall be directed?
