AMC 25.851(a)(1) Hand fire extinguishers ED Decision 2012/008/RM 1 The number and location of hand fire extinguishers should be such as to provide adequate availability for use, account being taken of the number and size of the passenger compartments and the location of toilets, galleys, etc. These considerations may result in the number being greater than the minimum prescribed. 2 Where only one hand extinguisher is required it should be located at the cabin crew member station, where provided, otherwise near the main entrance door. 3 Where two or more hand extinguishers are required and their location is not otherwise dictated by consideration of paragraph 1 above, an extinguisher should be located at each end of the cabin and the remainder distributed throughout the cabin as evenly as is practicable.
