Hello to all! Just a couple of questions I would like answered:
When ordering aircraft, some planes have a triangle with a “!” in it right beside the passenger capacity… just wondering what this means and how these planes differ from the rest.
Secondly, I have been reading some forums about ORS ratings, and they are all talking about specific numbered ratings, for example: an ORS rating of 99. All I see is green bars, how do see the number value?
according to regulations, it should be possible to evacuate a plane in less than 90 seconds.
A plane can be big enough to install 220 slim seats, but only have enough exits to evacuate 180 passengers in less than 90 seconds. In this case, the plane is only allowed to carry 180 passengers. That's why you get the warning.
