Abstract
A system for carrying supplemental oxygen bottles on a passenger aircraft has an oxygen canister locker enclosed in a special high temperature resistant fabric enclosure to prevent the spread of fire and fumes. The fabric enclosure has a sealable opening therein to receive the oxygen canister locker and allow access to the contents of the locker. The fabric enclosure is lined with a metalized fabric liner which is heat resistant up to temperatures exceeding 1500.degree. Fahrenheit. Additionally, the seams used to construct the bag as well as the construction techniques are such that fumes are inhibited from escaping the enclosure.
