The Fire Safety Section conducts,
manages and supports research programs to improve fire safety
in commercial transport aircraft. The research is comprised of
two separate but complimentary, programs: Fire and Cabin Safety
and Fire Resistant Materials. Fire and Cabin Safety is a near
term program that addresses specific aircraft applications and/or
problems, whereas Fire Resistant Materials is a long range program
to develop the enabling technology for ultra-fire resistant interior
materials. READ
