Bird of the Week 06/26
My background is offshore oil rigs: like sailors,
no place to run, and going over the side may not
get you away from the fire. (Out of the frying pan...)

My little fire bottles are positioned inside so that
occupants can use them to get out. Larger three
extinguishers are in external bays and the rear of my toad.

Don't know of anything we can do about burning propane--
thought it requires massive flow of water to cool the tanks
while it vents?

In the traffic accident, the sedan had some spay cans
in the trunk. Apparently the propellants weren't flammable,
but one's nerve was still tested when they cooked off. ;-)
