Russian Flight Safety Provisions, Krygyzstan 2003

Emergency exit, 'chop here with crash axe' style. Got to love the simplicity and expediency of that design. And yes, I flew on that plane. It also took me two tries to get that picture. On departure I was barred from photography by some Stalin throwback at the Osh airport. I snuck the shot on arrival at Bishkek before I could be stopped.
