FAA evacuation rule may be unattainable due to elderly passengers, study finds.
A new study published in AIP Advances finds that the FAA’s 90-second evacuation rule may be unattainable due to the growing number of elderly passengers.
Using computer simulations of an Airbus A320 during rare high-risk events, researchers discovered that evacuation times exceeded the standard, even with optimal seating.
The study highlights the need for updated safety regulations that account for age-related mobility challenges and suggests airlines consider strategic passenger placement to improve emergency preparedness.
