The escape slide (10) is a longitudinally extending structure with a center line that extends from the head end (21) of the slide (10), adjacent the egress opening (11), to a toe end (22) that is located adjacent the horizontally extending ground plane (14). Pressurizing means is operative to inflate the escape slide (10), which escape slide (10) has panels or panel members (25,26) of flexible material with an upper sliding surface (25) that extends in the longitudinal direction. The escape slide (10) has a portion of its length that is curvilinear in plan view, which curvilinear portion maybe close to the egress opening (11) of the aircraft or anywhere along the length of the escape slide (10).
