RE: A-Star Pt Fluid Containment

[AirMed1 <AirMed1@shannonhealth.org>]

We fly in a A-Star B3 and we got with LifePort and they designed a Blood pan
that mounts on the floor and will hold all spills that may occur during
flight.  Before this was put in we had the same problems you had but since
the new pan was put in, all spills stay in the pan for easy clean up.
Good Luck
