An EASA approved emergency exit needs to be simple, obvious, unobstructed, not require exceptional effort to open and to have conspicuous markings for use in the daylight and dark. It is doubtful therefore that the S92 ramp upper door would fall into this category whereas the Sea King cabin door window might (were it in need of EASA approval). The main S92 ramp certainly cannot be considered an emergency exit due to its mode of operation.
