The purpose of this standard is to provide a method to evaluate the performance of replacement hand-held fire extinguishers for Halon 1211 required on transport category aircraft. Currently, regulations require that Halon 1211, or equivalent, hand-held fire extinguishers be carried in the passenger cabin of transport aircraft. The regulation states that the type and quantity of agent, if other than Halon 1211, must be appropriate for the kind of fires likely to occur where used.
