What safety gear would you have near a propane
stove in the galley?


1 pt


1. Master shut off valve for propane.
2. Fire hood.
3. Cover for stove.
4. CO detector.
5. Vent fan.
6. Fire extinguisher located near exit.
7. Heavy duty oven mitts or M-60 barrel changing mitts.
8. Halon or purple K in a can/small bucket/bottle.
9. Propane leak detector.


Can you explain what a fire hood is?


He may mean a smoke hood.

I know a number of people who fly regularly and who stay in hotels,
mostly in Asia.
They have these at hand to offer at least an opportunity to escape the
all too often fires
