Oxygen masks failed: passengers | theage.com.au

The Age newspaper is now reporting that passengers' oxygen masks did not operate correctly and quotes:

"However, a source close to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority said exploding oxygen cylinders were the likely cause of the rupture, and would be the main focus of the investigation, as they were stored in the exact location of the explosion and there were no signs of fire."
