Where will you find the Portable Halon Fire Extinguishers on the 65 PAX-DC aircraft?

The Portable Halon Fire Extinguishers on the 65 PAX-DC aircraft are located at the Forward Flight Attendant (FA) Station, specifically in the overhead bin (OHB) at Row 11, A/C side. This is the designated location for these extinguishers as it allows for quick access by cabin crew in the event of a fire emergency, ensuring that they can respond promptly to incidents, particularly in the vicinity of the cockpit or galley where issues may arise during flight.

Having the extinguishers at the Forward FA Station aligns with safety protocols that prioritize the readiness of crew members to extinguish fires before they escalate. The overhead bin's location allows the crew to store the extinguishers out of the way until needed while ensuring they are easy to retrieve.

Choosing this location also reflects an understanding of the layout and flow of the cabin, as crew members are often at the front of the aircraft, enabling a rapid response to fires in critical areas.
