Introduction
Other design issues also need to be considered:
- What is the most efficient pax boarding strategy for these configurations?
- How should the cabin be laid out i.e. relative location of recreational spaces, number and location of staircases, relative positioning of different classes, etc.
- Is the optimal OPERATIONAL layout conducive to the optimal EVACUATION requirement?
-
- Should be noted that Pax capacity not simply based on aerodynamic or airport constraints, but on ability of aircraft to meet evacuation safety requirements.
