    Description: The National Transportation Safety Board is currently 
conducting a study on emergency evacuation from commercial aircraft. 
The study will examine the effects on emergency evacuations of the 
following: (1) Evacuation equipment; (2) different cabin 
configurations; (3) different cabin and outside environments; (4) 
evacuation procedures and crew/passenger communications; and (5) 
passenger age, size, and other bio-behavioral factors. Further, the 
study will compile general statistics on evacuations, including the 
number of evacuations and the types and number of passenger injuries 
incurred during evacuations.
    Therefore, the National Transportation Safety Board is seeking 
emergency clearance to obtain data from passengers who have evacuated 
from commercial aircraft on their observations of the evacuation and 
their personal experience during the evacuation.
