Post Crew Oxygen Bottle Shut-Off Valve

There were some references to the flight-crew oxygen system status in previous posts.

In my company we had incidents where the shutoff-valve of the replacement oxygen bottle was not fully opened by maintenance after installation - just enough to give a correct gauge readout.

And it took several crews / flights until the first correctly done system check detected that fault by observing the decreasing supply-pressure.
