Yes, but that goes against what Boeing recommended in Engine fire checklist, which is that discharging two bottles might not be effective and could even reduce the effectiveness of the first one. I mean if the second bottle had a real chance of putting out the fire and prevent an evacuation, why didn’t they include it in the engine fire checklist?
