AIR TFC CTLR FLYING AS PAX ON B737-700 FEELS OVERWING EMER EGRESS IS COMPROMISED BY PAX SEATS ADJACENT TO THEM.

Narrative

WHILE I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS ACFT HAS FAA CERTIFICATION; I BELIEVE THAT THE CONFIGN OF THE EXIT ROW (ROW 12) MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR PEOPLE TO EGRESS THE ACFT IN ALL BUT A VERY CTLED SIT. IT SETS UP DEPARTING EMER PAX FOR FAILURE AND PANIC BY: 1) PLACING A ROW OF SEATS IN DIRECT LINE WITH THE EMER EXIT. 2) CREATING 2 EGRESS RTES THAT END AT THE CABIN WALL AND NOT THE EXIT; REQUIRING PAX TO MERGE IN AN AREA APPROX 18 INCHES BY 18 INCHES WHILE HUNCHED OVER TO GET OUT OF THE AIRPLANE. 3) HAVING A SEAT CARD THAT DOES NOT DEPICT THE EXITS AS INSTALLED. ATTACHED IS A DIAGRAM OF THE B737-700 FROM SEATGURU.COM AND IT SHOWS WHAT I WOULD FEEL TO BE A CORRECT EXIT ROW EGRESS RTE. THE ACFT I WAS ON HAS ROW 12 DIRECTLY BLOCKING THE EXIT WITH ONLY 2 SEATS IN THE ROW ON EACH SIDE. AGAIN; I AM SURE THAT THE ACFT MET CERTIFICATION STANDARDS BUT IN THIS CASE I THINK IT SHOULD BE REVIEWED IN THE LIGHT THAT WHEN USED IT WILL MOST LIKELY BE IN AN EMERGENT AND POSSIBLE PANIC SIT. NORMALLY; I COMMENT ON ATC SAFETY ISSUES; BUT I HONESTLY FEEL THAT THIS WARRANTS LOOKING INTO EVEN IF ONLY TO HAVE ONE OF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE ACFT AND SEE IF YOU AGREE WITH ME OR NOT. TRUST ME; AS WE ALL KNOW GETTING OUT OF AN EMER EGRESS IS CRITICAL AT BEST; BUT IN THIS CASE I AM SURE SOMEONE OR MANY WILL BE HURT -- OR WORSE.
