SimCaptain,

Best to stick to the Sim nothing in Google Translate of the article you posted to say masks deployed. On the ground they would have to be deployed manually, and I doubt even Turkish crew are so unaware of Boeing procedures to imagine that filling the cabin full of chemically generated oxygen would be a good idea in a fire situation.

Fire in the cockpit, Hmnn. . . we have to be really careful about putting our cigarette stubs in waste bins sorry, couldn't resist. . .anyone who has worked for a Turkish company will understand.



Edited to say, a witness on the 2nd report that I also Google Translated claims masks deployed. . . . . for the sake of the crew, I hope not (or at least we can hope that they flew in the same Squadron as the Chief Pilot. . then all will be OK )
