- OXYGEN CYLINDERS
- TURRETS:
- COMPUTING OXYGEN DURATION
- 5 x 3 x 200/400 x 1/2 = 3 plus hours.
- 5 x 3 x 200/400 x 1/3 = 2 plus hours.
- 5 x 4 x l60/400 x 1/3 = 2½ plus hours
- 5 x 6 x 200/400 x 1/4 = 3⅔ hours
- 3 cylinders, pressure 300 pounds, two men on system.
- 5 x 3 x 300/400 x 1/2 = 5 plus hours
- 5 x 3 x 300/400 x 1/5 = 2 hours.
- F-1 CYLINDER -- ball turret -- full charge to 400 pounds 2 plus hours
- 2 (man hours) x 120/400 = 0.5 plus hours (30 plus min)

- ALTERNATIVE POSITIONS IN EMERGENCY:
- DURATION OF OXYGEN SUPPLY:
- VARIATIONS:
- SERVICING THE OXYGEN INSTALLATION IN THE B-17, B-24 and B-29
- 1. Attach recharger hoses to cylinders of both turrets in B-17 or B-24.
- 5. Fully open valve at end of hose and wait until oxygen stops flowing.
- 8. Turn off hose valve and remove nipple from filler valve.
- 9. Replace cover of filler valve.
- 10. Disconnect filler hoses from turret tanks.
- LEAKS IN OXYGEN LINE
- NOTE:
- GENERAL RULES FOR SAFE HANDLING OF OXYGEN
- PASSING OUT AT ALTITUDE
- THE B-29 AT HIGH ALTITUDE
- PRESSURE CABINS
- 1. Pilot's seat
- 2. Behind R.H. side gunner
- WHEN DO YOU NEED OXYGEN IN A B-29?
- 1. When you are flying unpressurized.
- 2. If you fly above 35,000 feet.
- 3. Following explosive decompression (Blown blister).
