I'd imagine they'll do the same as any other large aircraft and fit inflatable escape slides . Keith |

http://www.flug-revue.rotor.com/FRHe...11/FR0311b.htm Rob That's a huge piece of CFRP they're cooking! Reminds me of the programme on Boeing's JSF prototype - they had a hell of a time trying to made a single piece upper wing skin in CFRP without getting any defects (bubbles in the surface IIRC) - I wonder how the Airbus wing box overcomes it? Can't wait to see this thing fly! David |
