Escape slides is absolutely valuable means to provide safe egress way to ground in emergency evacuation. But it is absolutely true that escape slide can be inflated inside aircraft, so that means safety device can be fatal obstacle to saving life. There were many cases that the slides were inadvertently inflated in the cabin in case of emergency landing.
I wonder why NTSB is so passive to recommend to modify the technical requirement of this emergency equipment. I strongly believe that it should not be inflated at any time inside the cabin.
