Yes the Emergency Breathing System (EBS), any oil rig workers out there will know what I am talking about (Pop, Suck, Blow) probably gives you just under a minute of recycled air.... Whether you remember to do it in the heat of the moment is another question. Offshore heli pilots don't benefit from this equipment as it is too bulky strapped to their chest.
