As someone who spends their workday beneath those doors, I would prefer my crew not be on the wrong end of an accidental deployment.

It seems to be a monthly occurrence at about every major airline. It's more concerning when they blow a slide and nothing happens.

Ever see one come up a jetbridge? I've seen it after the fact. Having one go off in a small confined area is a little more dangerous than being underneath one.

At PMUS a slide deployment is a three to five day suspension.

These accidental deployments are mechanic, pilot, flight attendant or fleet mistakes?

Slide re-packs cost a lot of money.
