Q

What is involved in the visual inspection of the passenger oxygen mask

A
  • check face peice for holes, cuts, tares, ect.
  • check valves for damage and proper operation
  • check resivor bag for damage or imperfection
  • check tubing for cremp marks, damage, and kinks
  • check headstrap for distortion, elasticity, and clenliness
