Just sitting at the gate waiting for departure of LX 787 BRU-ZRH.

Sitting in 12F, the second emergency row window seat. The seat is not flat, but has a distinct dowmward slope. I though the seat was broken, but the FA sad it was a special version of the A320 and it is there in order to facilitate easier evacuation (safety instructions in seat pocket say A320E). Don't sit here - it is very odd. Luckily the middle seat is empty so that's where I will be sitting.

TFM, I already know your comment

I have now checked: all 4 window emergency exit seats have the same slope: 11A, 11F, 12A, 12F.

On EF it simply showed as "320" so not sure whether it is possible to identify it in advance.
