What happens if you OPEN the OVER-WING EXITS?

In this video I will show you how to open the over-wing exits of a Boeing 737-800. I will also explain the difference between Airbus and Boeing philosophy, who can sit at the over-wings and why its a very very stupid idea to open them unless you are in an emergency.
Enjoy todays video and let me know what you think!

[@ThatGuy-te9wh]

Well, the plane is still, empty, and unpressurized, so it's just a matter of closing it and putting the cover back on.

[@marshallhogan3440]

[@slagellajs]

Marshall Hogan not necessarily. I’m a mechanic on these. We open and close them all the time.

[@marshallhogan3440]

slagellajs slagellajs very nice! At 6:16 you can see a green “ push door close “ button that is not in the real aircraft. Also, you can see a wall outside that looks like the training facility.

[@slagellajs]

Marshall Hogan haha yeah I saw that then after I commented! 🤣

[@dash8brj]

Damn that door opened with some gusto when you pulled the handle - thanks for the tip on the lanyard. Hope I never need to use it :)

[@grizzlygrizzle]

the lanyard thing is a great feature that could well prevent a lot of injuries in an evacuation. It's good to know about it.

[@sydyidanton5873]

Respectfully the presenter has described the function of that 'lanyard' erroneously. It’s NOT for evacuating on the ground, it’s for use ONLY in a ditching. The concept is for it to be used to prevent anyone being washed off the wet slippery wing while the manual life rafts (boat in a bag vs slide-rafts) are deployed. He also forgot to mention that when the gull-wing (and the former removable hatch) is opened the flaps fully extend in order to slide down the flaps. Land evacs go aft in the direction of the arrows over the trailing edge while ditching evacs go forward over the leading edge. (If you would like know why that is, I’m happy to explain, trying avoid writing an essay!) The location of the escape tapes/ropes (‘lanyard’) is attachment point is nearest to the leading edge.Its not used during a ground evac EVER because you are sending people in the wrong direction and wasting precious time, you don’t ever want a crowd gathering on the wing, you want them down on the ground and moving rapidly away downwind of the aircraft. On the A320 family and B767/757s when the over wing exit hatch is opened, an evacuation slide deploys from the side of the fuselage due to increased height off the ground. I’m a former emergency procedures instructor and onboard manager for a major airline, so this information is factual. I hope this helps, and clarifies how it works and what it’s for 😊

[@DeputatKaktus]

I have a genuine Monty Python moment in my mind‘s eye right now, involving a scenario where a veteran firefighter asks a newbie: „Son, before you pull that lever, what type of aircraft is this?“ „Airbus!“ *confidently pulls lever* „No, wait, Boeiiiiiiiing......!“ *gets catapulted off the wing* „...And now for something completely different.“

i'm 192 cm tall so I am really grateful for a little bit of extra leg room on overwing exit seats. Flight attendants always do extra briefing to me and other overwing exit seat passengers regarding the emergency procedure but they sound like robot and do it really fast. This video explained better than the flight attendants, thank you very much.

"If you need a seatbelt extension" Translation: "If you're fat"

[@arog7493]

Li'l Squeak Healthy at any size? Very likely.. /s

[@7cle]

​@Li'l Squeak: To be clear : Mentour has NOT made any discrimination. User Blaz Bohinc stated one reason for which one might need a larger seat belt. That is not discrimination either. You are right, though, the airline companies do make it different for a fat person in this respect. This is the prime definition of the verb to discriminate : Identify a difference and make a special case or treatment of it. Though socially, discrimination has shifted in meaning. Here though, a fat person to be banned from exit seats is not a bad discrimination because there is a perfectly valid reason to do so, based on experience of real or simulated aircraft evacuation and mandated by safety. I fight discrimination when it is an unjustified treatment based on a difference that is irrelevant to the situation. Not here, definitely.

[@7cle]

Li'l Squeak I think you should leave your comment. It makes no offence to anyone. It’s just a subject of reflection.

Great! Glad to have seen exactly how to open that emergency exit door - although I hope I never have to do it - and especially the part about the line you can tie to the tag on the wing, which I never knew about before: always wondered what that tag on the wing was for. 👍🏻

[@kathy13volpe]

All of your podcasts r so very interesting. 💙 them all! Thanks so much

[@AdamLeuer]

I fly weekly, and almost always sit in one of two F seats in the exit rows for the outbound flight. As American consistently uses a 737-800 for this flight (the first flight out in the morning), I've just about memorized the procedure to open the exit door at this point. However seeing it done in practice is much more reassuring than hoping I've correctly interpreted whatever it is the horrible 90s-era CGI renderings on American's seat-back information cards are supposed to be portraying. I feel somewhat more optimistic that when inevitably I'm called upon to open the over-wing exit I'll be able to achieve a bit more than uselessly fumbling about with the door until someone else comes to do it.

[@NoNameAtAll2]

Adam Leuer Imagine finally getting into such situation... But engine fire is on your side, so they open the door on the other side

[@marcusdamberger]

If there is a fire on your side you should not open that side. Why make it worse? Listen to the cabin crew, they are trained for different kinds of landings.

[@freednighthawk]

I do hope that you shall never have a need.

[@beyondbackwater4933]

Why do you think an emergency is going to be inevitable? Odds of hull loss accident are around 1.5 in a million flights. If you fly every week for 30 years that's less than only 2000 flights. So it's not inevitable but likely never going to happen for you, as much as you'd like to show everyone what you learned.

Thanks very much for actually showing how the overwing door opens! I've been flying since the 707 was the workhorse of the industry, and have just assumed that they were all plug style doors that had to be pulled in and thrown out. Now I know to look out for different kinds!

[@luckystriker7489]

Hi Mentour Pilot, thanks for the explanation! I have some questions, maybe for a Q&A video: - Would you consider getting a type rating for other manufacturer as Airbus/Embraer/Bombardier? - Would your airline support you on that? Or is that unusual? Looking forward to your next video!

Could you do a video on passenger panic and how cabin and flight crew are trained and try to deal with it. There are videos out there of people evacuating planes with baggage in hands, people pushing and shoving to get off etc. One of the biggest things that makes me worry in case of an emergency is not the emergency itself but the panic of the people around me.

[@stevemclean9411]

I have seen in tv news. People evacuating with carry on bags, recently, I think jet Blue at LAX

[@czhaok]

@steve mclean you have to realise though, yes most of those people who do that are obnoxious and moronic. However, somebody could have their insulin injections in their carry on, emergency glucose, epi pen, and many other legitimate reasons - sure it should be in an actual small carry on and not for the over head bags, but just be a little bit more open minded before just assuming it's out of obnoxois tendencies

[@spvillano]

I loved one of those "influencer" idiots, who tells her viewers to just start running. In one case, a 16 year old girl took off running from an aircraft that was evacuated for an engine fire. She ran through the smoke, to be run over by a fire truck and killed. The driver didn't even know that he hit anyone. Instead, hit the ground and find someone from the crew for directions, as there are standard assembly areas that are safe from both emergency equipment and any misbehavior on the part of an emergency aircraft. They're there for passenger safety first and foremost.

[@bobbycvsixfour5258]

That was the last thing I expected, 06:00. I was waiting for the door to become unhinged, then being pulled into the cabin and then thrown out. The new design is a lot better, just pull down on the lever. I remember a long time ago a flight attendant asked me if I was comfortable about sitting in the emergency row. I replied, "You tell me to chuck the door, the door will be CHUCKED", LOL. I also didn't know about the lanyard. Mentour Pilot, your teams videos should be included on airline pre-flights.

Seeing this emergency exit reminds me of the "Miracle on the Hudson". It would be nice to learn about ditching procedures, and launching the life rafts.

[@jyrgenruut]

Very nice! I never have had the "honour" of sitting at one of those seats... but to be quite frank, it's one of those seats that passengers hate in general... (with the whole not able to see the ground mentality). I am sure pilots will happily take that seat, though...

[@alphapt9370]

I used to work as cabin crew. I remember, during the early times, there was this senior member (person in charge of the crew, not saying that person was a senior citizen) that always rolled his eyes when new cabin crew called this exit as a door. For him, it gave the passengers the wrong impression, during the briefing, and that would lead them to believe it was a normal door, and not an emergency exit. But, you know, there is always "that person" who is a stickler for detail.

[@kenbrownfield6584]

[@allenshepard7992]

Like everyone else: Thank you. I'd hate to be slow and trying to figure out what is going on. BTW - that is the first time I've heard of the lanyard. Good idea. The handle cover is smart. Hotel rooms have "Do not hang cloths from sprinkler" signs because people do not think while on vacation.

Hi Mentour. Love the channel! I was taking off from PRG today and noticed there was a significant down and then upward slope in the runway 24-06. Do you need to take that into account when taking off and/or landing? If so, how do you do that?

[@hello.1590]

Good to hear this from a pilot👍

[@Soordhin]

The 737 classic (-300 to -500) had the same "throw-away" overwing exits that the airbus still has. They switched to the new actuated ones with the NG mainly for new regulatory demands. As airbus never had to change the fuselage of their aircraft, neither in length nor in any other way since the initial triplet (319-321) was designed, they still retain the same overwing exit design that was common in the 80ies. After all the A320-family was airbus answer to the 737 classic, which shows in many ways. However, opening the overwing exits in an A319-A321 will inflate an escape slide which is required since the wing is much higher off the ground than in a 737. And that means, if done outside an emergency, that a new slide has to be fitted, the old one refurbished and the aircraft will be on the ground until that lengthy maintenance action is complete. Therefore it is not possible for the crew to enjoy the sun on the wing during a strike related delay somewhere nice like it is on the 737.

[@MentourPilot]

Great info.

[@Colaholiker]

I just wanted to say that. ;-) There is a reason why those "throw away" overwing exits are no longer used in new design - it showed that people woud often put the door on a seat in the exit row instead of throwning it out. Maybe they thought you can't throw away some expensive aircraft part. But who cares after a gear up landing somewhere on a field. ;-) A little nitpick on the Airbusses (Airbii?) - only 318-320 have the "throw away" emergency exits. The 321 has four full size doors on each side. One all the way fwd and aft like the smaller ones, but then another full size door just fwd and aft of the wing instead of the overwing exits. BTW: 737-100 and -200 also had it, you just missed them in your description.

[@leighs5048]

Soldier_2003 Captain Joe flew with Air Berlin which went out of business the end of 2017 so has been looking for a new airline to work for. Mentour Pilot said in a very recent chat that he hadn’t heard from him in a while and that he didn’t know when they would get to collaborate, but he hoped they would do it eventually. Said Joe’s first priority would be getting hired by another airline and then it might depend on whether he had the time to make videos and if his new airline was ok with his making videos as apparently some airlines don’t like their employees to do online videos. (Mentour Pilot said his own airline was ok with him doing his own videos.) Hope this answers your question. 🙂

[@LeifNelandDk]

I guess it is ok for Mentour Pilot to do these videos, because they explain facts truthfully and do not badmouth airlines.If he said the bosses were stupid and the mecanics just fixed the planes with gaffer tape, or the pilots didn't follow the instructions, the airline wouldn't be so happy ;-) No airline would mind these videos, I would think.

In (I think) older 737s, the doors I saw told me I had to pull it in and then throw it through the hole, basically, like you explain for non-Boeing aircraft. The newer ones opened like this, though, according to the cards.

[@nightowldickson]

Very insightful video and you've summed up most of the points very well but in a concise way! Just a few of my observations - 1) Most airlines do have a pre-flight briefing (by cabin crew) for overwing exit passengers but I flew American Airlines 2 years ago and there was absolutely no briefing on the 737-800 flight (the flight was absolutely full as well), only briefing material was the card in the seat pocket. 2) Didn't know there was a lanyard there and I don't recall that mentioned anywhere - is that mentioned in the safety card? 3) Just a bit of trivia the blinds on the overwing exit door windows go from bottom to top which is opposite of normal cabin windows

I flew back with EasyJet from Hamburg in August and was picked out to sit in the exit seat. Felt an honour

[@MentourPilot]

Good. With great legroom comes great responsibility.

[@BrettonFerguson]

Studies have shown if the passenger seats were backwards, it is a hundred times safer during a crash. Most injuries are caused by people snapping forward and hitting the seat in front of them. The crash positions are designed to reduce these injuries. With the seats backwards this is prevented almost 100% as long as people are wearing their seatbelt, the airplane remains intact, and the seat remains attached to the floor. Only on small company jets have I ever seen the passenger seats installed backwards. I would like to see a video as to why no companies have done this. Thanks.

[@epasko5713]

You are correct, but only about 7 times safer, + there is issues with passengers nauseated and such, that makes it too hard to determine how many will actually Use those seats and the cost effectiveness of the changes to the aircraft, I flew on military C-5, all upper deck seating was rear facing, No windows = No Nausea
