hi,
i have looked and asked and probed. all the time i have been flying the ng's we have seen the oxygen for dispatch as the number of crews, check the temperature and check the minimum pressure required for dispatch and match it against the indication in the cockpit. there is no indication of flow rates in different selections anywhere and thats what i am looking for
1. how much oxygen is stored in the bottle?
2. is there a calculation to figure out how long it will last the cockpit crew?
3. why does boeing define dispatch criteria only in terms of psi?

if you can direct me to the relevant pages, please do help.
thanks for the sarcasm.
