well I stand corected Blue eagle,
Tho having had a chat to the fire chief on my last fire and Smoke course, the amount of smoke/ uncombusted vapour reqired to kill/incapacitate or at least give you serious long term health issues is really very small. There are still a lot of toxic materials that go into making aeroplanes (and cars for that matter) less exposure to them the better. So even tougher choice, 3 broken legs now amongst 200 pax or an extra 20 cases of cancer in the next 10 years.
