So can we bury this one please? Darryl You may have to talk to someone at FAA. The link provided by the OP includes this: "Aviator’s oxygen must meet certain standards to ensure that it is safe to be taken to altitude. Only aviator’s-grade breathing oxygen meets this specification. Neither medical grade nor industrial grade oxygen is safe to substitute because they do not meet the same stringent standards as ABO." Of course it's been said many times in many places that this just isn't true but FAA does seem to want to keep up the illusion. Maybe their concern is that someone will top off with some other gas, such as nitrogen which is available at many FBOs, if they don't insist on ABO labeling. Andy |
