I've suddenly become a cheerleader for Mac the Fire Guy. I've been reviewing his windows and plan on testing these ideas later this week.

The daughter would have no problem. She is young could easily jump that far. Send her out first and then have her help her brother.
bukhrn 's video link shows feet first belly down and use a blanket to keep the sharp window ledge from hurting you. That looks like the best way to me.
But, my TT is so small I am not be worried about it. I can make it out the door. If I couldn't it would not make any difference because the emergency exit window is on the same end of the TT as the door. So it doesn't really help me.
That's the plan for my daughter and son- get her out and have him come down to her.

As for other comments, I do like our 2 door setup. BUT- I'm at one end of 40' and the kids are at the other. Between us is the fridge and stove (where I'm guessing most fires originate). The kids have their own 1/2 bath with a door to the outside- but it's right next to the fridge. If that's the source of the fire, then that's likely to block that exit.
My plan is for additional fire extinguishers and smoke alarms so that we have as early of a warning as possible.
