materials standards

We spent a couple of days at Peggys Cove last year & camping within sight of the area & 111 memorial was a very emotional experience - just the thought of what they went through breaks me out in a cold sweat, RIP guys you did your very best to the end.

What happened about the flammable insulation material, I hope an improved material standard came about - does anyone know ? (& aoplogies in advance if I've already missed this in an earlier reply)

It makes a firm case for nothing less than non-flammabel materials, smoke hoods / masks, fire gloves & extinguishers in the cockpit & cabin areas.

Take care folks.
