"My Boeing's a 717. Turn oxy bottle off? Oxy in the line is dumped. Line pressure gauge: on zero. Oxy mask check: no noise. Pretty hard to stuff that up.
It intrigues me that Boeing can continue to make real Boeings without such a simple safety feature. "
Could it be that the 717 didn't start off as a Boeing, and this system was inherited from the DC-9?
