Abstract:

This report describes the results of a test program designed to: (1) determine the amount of toxic decomposition byproducts from the use of Halon 1211 on large seat fires in an aircraft cabin while in flight; (2) compare relative hazard levels from the use of common aircraft hand-held extinguishers (Halon 1211, monammonium phosphate, carbon dioxide, water) on large fire in an aircraft cabin while in flight; (3) compare the hazards from the hand-held extinguishers extinguishing a large aircraft seat fire to the hazards of an uncontrolled seat fire.
