Kurt:

I don't know if they still sell the same material they did 3 years ago when
I got mine. I got a grey carpet with a thin black foam lining on the back.
Nice and soft material and the flame test went reaonably well. However: it
discolors rapidly. The first layer on the roll was yellow when I wanted to
use it and it was never exposed to direct sunlight. How it will fare in the
plane we shall see.
