10.2.4 Protective Breathing Equipment

1. Smoke Goggles
sets are provided together with the oxygen demand mask for each flight crew member. The
smoke goggles shall be compatible to the two oxygen masks installed.

2. Smoke Hoods

Not applicable

3. Protective Breathing Equipment

The required crew protective breathing equipment is located behind CM2.

4. Quick Donning Masks

1 Prior to flight, the EROS oxygen mask must be checked and stowed properly in its receptacle
to qualify as a quick donning oxygen mask.
Headsets, eyeglasses or hats worn by the crew may interfere with the quick donning
capabilities of the oxygen masks.
For two-pilot operations, the standard crew oxygen mask must be worn around the
neck by both pilots, or the optional sweep-on oxygen mask must be properly stowed
to qualify as a quick donning mask for operations above FL 350.

2. Continuous use of the supplemental oxygen system above 25,000 feet cabin altitude, with
passengers, or above 40,000 feet cabin altitude, crew only, is prohibited.

3. For single pilot operations, a crew oxygen mask must be available for a passenger occupying
the right crew seat. The mask must be checked during preflight and the passenger briefed on
its use.

The EROS mask emergency pressure is tested with a press-to-test button, and changed to
emergency by turning that same button to EMER setting. 100 percent position should be selected
when using an oxygen mask for smoke protection. The emergency position on the mask may be used
if increased oxygen flow is desired. Use of the emergency position will result in diminished duration of
oxygen supply.
A two-position toggle switch is provided on the pilot's and copilot's side consoles. The Switch is
marked MIC OXY MASK and MIC HEAD SET. Depressing the microphone button on the appropriate
control wheel allows a crewmember to transmit through the headset microphone or oxygen mask
microphone, whichever is selected.

Remove EROS crew oxygen masks (if installed), if temperature will be less than 0C, and drain all
cabin fluids. When the airplane is parked in any conditions of falling or blowing snow, regardless of
temperature, the engine, and pitot covers should be installed.
One quick donning masks is installed for each Pilot next to each seat. Further details to be found in
the Cessna AOM Chapter 2

10.2.5 Hand fire Extinguisher

One portable Halon fire extinguisher is mounted on the flight deck on the bulkhead below the copilot`s
seat. One portable Halon fire extinguisher is located in the front LH galley. The 1.5 kg (3.3 lb) Halonite
fire extinguisher should be used on classes B (oils, greases, flammable liquids) and C (electrical or

The 5.5 kg (12 lb) Halonite fire extinguisher should be used on class A (paper, wood, fabric, rubber), B
and C fire.

Precautions after fire extinguishing:

Look out for flashback;
Ventilate the compartment as promptly as possible.

10.2.6 Crash Axe

One crash axe is located in the flight deck behind the commander`s seat clipped to the bulkhead.

10.3 Emergency lighting

A three-position passenger advisory switch in the cockpit is also tied to the hot battery bus. In the
SEAT BELT position, only the FASTEN SEAT BELT sign is illuminated in the cabin. In the PASS SAFETY
position, the FASTEN SEAT BELT sign, the interior EMERGENCY EXIT lights and aft right hand PSU are
illuminated. The NO SMOKING sign is illuminated at all-time. When the switch is OFF, all advisory and
emergency lighting is extinguished.
A third provision for emergency exit lighting is through a small battery in the cabin headliner which
will power the interior exit lights any time a sensor is exposed to a lateral fore and aft force of 5 Gs or
more.

10.11 Oxygen Requirements

Flight Profile

The oxygen supplies conform to the requirements of Standard Flight Profile. The aircraft should not
be flight planned on routes where the MEA or MORA whichever is lower, is greater than 10 000 ft
pressure altitude for more than 100 NM. Should a flight, due to special requirement or low supplies,
be unable to comply with Table below, it is the responsibility of commander to ensure that MEAs on
the intended route of flight allow a non standard profile, which would allow a lesser oxygen supply.
However the Flight Crew 130 Minutes Minimum and the Passenger Emergency Descent Minimum
must be on board at all times unless the aircraft is flown unpressurized and below FL 100 in which
case only 15 Minutes Protective Breathing Oxygen for both crew members (total of 198 ltr) is
required.

Oxygen Requirements

Oxygen requirements are listed in Table 1 below. They are based on the requirement of OM-Part A.
The Aircraft has a Single Bottle System. The flight compartment and Passenger oxygen bottles contain
50 cubic feet of Oxygen if they are charged with normal charge pressure of 1850 psi at 21 C.

Special Oxygen Requirements
Long Over Water Legs

After an emergency descent during Long over water legs or flights across sparsely settled areas fuel
limitations may require that altitudes in excess of 10 000 ft must be maintained for an extended time
to meet fuel requirements to reach the nearest airport. It is the responsibility of the commander to
ensure that sufficient oxygen is carried to meet such requirements. Quantities required for crew and
passengers shall be calculated in accordance with
Table 2 below.
Mountainous Terrain
After an emergency descent over mountainous terrain high MEAs may require that altitudes in excess
of 10 000 ft must be maintained for an extended time until reaching areas of lower MEAs or landing at
a suitable airport. It is the responsibility of the commander to ensure that sufficient oxygen is carried
to meet such requirements. Quantities required for crew and passengers shall calculate in accordance
with Table 2 below.
