AMC 25.810 Emergency egress assisting means and escape routes

ED Decision 2020/024/R

The relevant parts of FAA Advisory Circular (AC) 25-17A Change 1, Transport Airplane Cabin Interiors Crashworthiness Handbook, dated 24.5.2016, are accepted by the Agency as providing an acceptable means of compliance with CS 25.810.

Note: ‘The relevant parts’ means ‘the parts of AC 25 -17A Change 1 that address the applicable FAR/CS‑25 paragraph’.

For emergency assisting means that are installed in non-pressurised compartments, the applicant should take into account the effects of exposure to very low temperature conditions during flight on the performance of the assisting means. The applicant should demonstrate that the assisting means functions properly when the cold soak effects associated with the expected flight durations and altitudes are combined with a 46 km/h (25 kt) wind directed from the most critical angle.
