Boeing 747 Emergency Evacuations
All,
Doing a bit of research for a project within our RFFS, would anyone happen to know:
1. How many (approx) emergency evacuations of Boeing 747s there has been over the 40 years the aircraft has been in service?
2. Has a 747-300/400 ever been evacuated from the upper deck?
Thanks in advance,
AFFF.

I was on that flight as a passenger (BA288). I Evacuated from the standard flight deck. Passengers from the upper deck said it was like a nightmare. It was bad enough for me.
Just thought you might like to know x

rhinestonecowgirl - Sorry to piss on your chips, but no-one evacuated through the flight deck, the hatch stayed closed. Many reports of a well executed and orderly evacuation, which ties in with reports given by the Airport Fire Service at the time.
