Also, the UPS cargo 747-44AF/SCD had inadequate cockpit/cargo air-handling separation, fire suppression, cargo-cockpit/airframe firewalling, lacked EVAS, isolated oxygen supplies and didn't have per-cargo-container fire detection and suppression.
- waterhouse 10y agoAh, there was an event that triggered a regulation? I was going to say that someone must have finally read this comic: https://xkcd.com/651/ https://xkcd.com/651/ Your link says: "In October 2010, the FAA issued a Safety Alert for Operators highlighting the fact that the cargo on board Flight 6 contained a large quantity of lithium type batteries. The FAA issued a restriction on the carrying of lithium batteries in bulk on passenger flights." But the comic seems to have come out on Oct 19 2009, so I guess the comic was prescient.
