Dash 8 100/200
Flew CBR-SYD today - the Q300 left for the next shuttle, so here's my story from exit row 4:
  • Pitch - around 36-37"
  • The panel for removal could only be removed by sitting in the seat
  • You have to lift the armrest, as the exit hole created is flush with the seat
  • Best exit - sit on the seat, swing your legs out, then climb out

And my apologies to the FTers in CBR for not warning you - the decision to visit CBR was made yesterday, and I was there for 3 hours.
