Yeah, that's it.

Seriously, almost 2 MILLION dollars because the training extinguishers don't have a 12" hose but the ones in the plane do?!? Get real! It's a fire extinguisher, they all operate the same. Pull (pin), Point (base of fire/ source), Squeeze (handle/ trigger), Sweep (spray entire area).
This is ridiculous, plain and simple.
