Aircraft Skin Penetrator and Agent Applicator. Volume 1. Working Model Development and Construction.

Abstract

This report covers development of an aircraft skin penetrator device to provide rapid penetration and allow placement of a suitable fire-suppressing agent onto the base of the aircraft fire. Volume I discusses in detail the research conducted on the development of the proposed working model of the Aircraft Skin Penetrator/Agent Applicator. The report contains photographs of the different concepts considered. Volume II has detailed drawings showing the construction of the working model Penetrator and sketches which show how the Penetrator may be used to fight aircraft fires.
