Fire Bottles

We at Meteor Flight are looking for some fire bottles for the T7.

Idealy we want MK4 Pt No 27N-66 Blue in colour, alternativly 27N-100

or

BCF 1211 Type 89A Brown in colour

Anyone help out.

They dont need to be full as we can get them tested and charged.

Fire bottles

Not sure if any help, but attached are some pics of a Graviner TYPE182A bottle.

Although marked with Sec 27N there is no Ref Number stamped on the unit. I believe this bottle is for Dove/ern application.

My knowledge of Graviner products is limited, but with some of these type of units the bottles are the same it’s the fittings that ar different for each application.

Flytst have also sent you a PM

Regards

Dave

Classic Flight do not have any, already asked. Most of the spares they hold are from us and they are now a big sponsor for our project too.

Bruce. Blue ones will be good if you have some.

BCF ( Halon ) is ok to use but Mythel Bromide is , as said a no no.

Many Thanks
Mark

Methyl bromide is a definite no-no although BCF (Halon 1211) is permissable in the aerospace environment.

Bit of a thread hijack sorry, but is there any restriction on the ozone layer killer BCF? I was under the opinion that after about 2003 it was not to be used. And what about Methyl Bromide is that still used?

I might have some of the blue bottles – I’ll have a look this afternoon.

Do you know if the stock of Meteor spares with Classic Flight (which I’m guessing may have come from Meteor Flight?) doesn’t have any.

I have a copy of the master spares list, it does not list any fire bottles.

If it’s possible there may be one there – have you got a picture of one please?
