Nothing special. Sunday late a maintenance team arrived on a 777 to change the fire bottle and release the a/c. Good job guys! :ok: |

Small correction...... with inflammable cargo For the same substances that won't burn it's "Non-flammable" and "Non-combustible" I make the point because you may, one day, have to talk to the Fire Chief who will use this terminology....... |
dessas: Thanks alot for the picture.
ETOPS: Yes you are right, but I just copy paste the source. Guys thanks for reply, All the best |
