BERLIN (AFP) - A380 super jumbo, the world's largest passenger aircraft, has encountered problems with its inflatable escape slides, the Internet site of the Germany weekly Stern reported Saturday.

The explosive charges meant to inflate the slides in just a few seconds during an emergency evacuation were deteriorating over time and becoming unusable, said the report




hmmmm somewhat serious but i hope they get ontop of the issue and ontop of the company that makes them:

US group BF Goodrich


Goodrich should know better tbh they have years of experience in this field.
