Thanks for the respond, but that didn't answer the question. I also didn’t mean “stopping” the evacuation at all. My whole point was about the effectiveness of the second bottle. If Boeing believed that discharging a second bottle would be useful (after the evacuation had already started), then why didn’t they include this step in the engine fire on ground checklist?
