I am sorry Jim, the O2 is for emergency use. The cabin is
pressurized from engine bleed air. The O2 masks drop from the
ceiling at 14K' cabin altitude just like the airliners.


Yep, that's what I thought.

Sorry you misunderstood me, and I misunderstood you.

This went back to the possibility of oxy causing the Payne Stewart
crash, when I replied it was not likely because that was believed to
be a primary pressurization problem.



That isn't what you replied.
