Airliner Cabin Emergency Flashlight

[ernsanada]

The middle flashlight pictured above is the same one that was on the last airplane I flew. In fact, I'd be surprised if that wasn't an honest-to-goodness Saab 340 that the flashlight is bolted to. I think I recognize the sticker below the light...

You are correct. It is a SAAB 340B.

The Orange Rayovac is the emergency light the flight crew uses.

Here's the previous thread on those lights.

The orange/black one is the light that I was talking about on the Air Force KC10....quite a quality product as you can tell...

Well... I flew an A-model. We didn't have anything as fancy as those Ray-O-Vacs.

I can ASSURE eveybody that in my company, an airline company (won´t mention which one, anyway we are ALWAYS TOP TEN in security !!!!!!!) that the lights are always in perfect working condition and that the batteries are replaced. I DO THAT JOB !!! (emergency equip replacement). The little red flashing time to time led indicates that the batts are OK. They´re not SF, Pilas or other brands, but they´re OK and certified.

Sure Jorge. I'm quite confident too that the lights will work though they may be old but have fresh batteries. Upgrading will not be done too soon I guess.


Until those flashlights are "antique". :laughing:
