I'm pretty sure the amount of cyanide varies widely from one airplane fire to another, but there is no time to measure it. I agree that we don't have actual ppm levels documented yet, but, we do know that the hydrogen cyanide gas is deadly within minutes. One of the papers said death ensues within minutes. Another one discussed how a hundred people died, none of whom had traumatic injury, all of whom died from the toxicity of the gases in the fire. What we don't know is the ppm concentration REDUCTION that a wet towel provides us. |
