Reading the preliminary reports of onboard fire (any pilot's 2nd worst nightmare, just behind the flight attendant dialing his wife), I am very happy that FedEx STC'd the cargo fire suppression system. That gives me a warm fuzzy at FL320 at 30 West.

I heard that there is a possibility that the government may mandate that all cargo aircraft flying certain types of haz (batteries) will have to have this system installed. I heard that's why we rushed to develop and patent the product.

At any rate, glad it's onboard some of our jets.
