I have a halon fire bottle mounted in the nose area. A saftey pin must
be removed before striking a large knob on the inst panel, this will
then discharge ALL the contents of the bottle via aluminium (aluminum)
tubing to the engine compartment.
I got the complete setup from AS. 'Phoenix' seems to ring a bell.
only problem.....can't test it without dumping the halon!!
