"Mr Gifford said airlines should consider putting families and elderly people near the exits."

Is this person INSANE?!

These are the same people who, in the less stressful situation of boarding (as compared to an emergency evacuation), can never seem to get out of their own way.

Most likely end result:
Possible slight increased survivability for familes and elderly
Dramatic decreased survivability for everyone else

Mr Gifford should try thinking before speaking.....
