| I swear I've seen MANY more inadvertent foam activations in hangars than "advertent" with an actual fire. It would be interesting to see a cost estimate on the effectiveness on the system... |

| Haha, I remember the same thing happened back at Shaw when the new suppression system went in the phase hangar. It went off a week after it complete on mid shift. We're sitting on the 55th end like, "hey, where's that plastic bag from? Look, there's more blowing down the ramp. Lol" When we drove to the hangar's, you couldn't even see the tails!! |

I don't remember where, but I'd seen pictures of a new "hush house" that the foam system went off and worked a little too well..
they had foam coming out of the chimney in the back for the exhaust system, and when they finally got the main doors open the foam was up to the ceiling. |
