Its called AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam.
Seethreepeeoh
Wow, you're fun at foam parties
justahumanbeing
I am irl. Once I convinced my roommate to buy a $2000 vacuum from a door to door sales guy, simply cause you could make foam for parties.
justahumanbeing
Its called AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam.
Dorsk84
Happened at Coast Guard base where I live in winter (doors shut) 3 helos totaled. The foam and electrics don't mix well.
MariahEAM
Did aircraft maintenance. Can confirm.

Aka someone got fired
dthninja2
No, no fire; only foam.
DropADollarInTheSwearJar
This stuff is toxic. Fired would be a nice consequence.
DeadForTaxReasons
It might not be the AFFF foam we use in ships for oil fires is protein based
NougatFromOrbit
The definition of irony.
MandatoryEels
no foam
LapisSea
If someone got "fired" than the "firing" prevention foam failed!

We had one of these at the Johnny Rockets I worked at. I wanted to pull it so bad after I found out what it did.

Sir, you can't fire me for that, it's fire PREVENTION. So just tell TSA to stop beating me and I'll go back to work.

How do you clean this stuff up and why the hell is there so much of it? Can the wind blow it away? Is it hard?
GuW69
Spray it with cold water and the foam will go away, or blow it away with a jet engine, source, airforce guy
justahumanbeing
Its called AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam. And yes. Imagine Dawn dish soap 100 times stronger
Wilson029
I work for a fire alarm company, that's a half a million dollar mistake.
DianNaoChong
More right? There's a plane in there....
JackDaniels91
Just to reset the system, right? Because i know those turbines are fucked, and those are worth alot more then a half a million.
ChewSoap
The turbines are fine, it's literally just soapy water. 1% trimethyl-trimethylene glycol and 99% water make up the solution. $10,000 mistake
JackDaniels91
That's good to know. We have a fire suppression system in our paint booth that coats everything in a paste. Ruined 100,000 in electric motor
ChewSoap
What color and consistency is the paste?
JackDaniels91
White. More like a thick powder. Coated anything that wasn't hermetically sealed.
bazzoire
So this is specific to Louisville Delta Airlines hangars? Has anyone tried it in any other hangars?

Sounds like some science needing to be done.

Although I think that is the neutral gel? or whatever its called - the one made of moon dust
ozzyozzofozz
This happened at my hangar and we only had 1 jet left on the flightline and all the foam rolled out directly at the only plane sitting there
Shamorza
Fuck that lone plane in particular.
justahumanbeing
Its called AFFF Aqueous Film Forming Foam.
ozzyozzofozz
I know. Like I said, I had this thing happen when I was in the navy
justahumanbeing
Me too. We accidently lit off the AFFF system in the Helo Hangar once, Not fun cleaning up lol
ozzyozzofozz
Oh yeah, good times
MegaDeuce
If only that jet had some sort of speedy way to get out of the way...
renegadesurvivor
..some kind of way of rapidly heating air for forward thrust and momentum..
ozzyozzofozz
Nobody was in it. We did move it with a tow tractor though
MegaDeuce
Heh, yeah I figured it wasn't sitting there ready to take off.
ozzyozzofozz
Well you never know with airplanes. They are tricky
LieutenantScarecrow
If you're ever in a hangar when these go off, throw your shirt over your head and run like hell. The foam will suffocate you
ThisIsGod
What if I'm in a rave party?
Mackdi
Thats kinda the idea. Trollolololololooooollllloooollolol
ilovegiraffeees
It just smells obnoxious. Open he hangar doors and get the toxic gas out. I've been bilge diving in AFFF. I'm still here.

ChewSoap
No, it will not. Stop misinforming people. Source: Am firefighter, work with fire fighting foams
MistressLyda
Genuine question: Why not? Breathing in this looks like it would create irritation, and irritated airways gets pissed off and kills people.
ChewSoap
Because you don't breathe it in. It's a very light and fluffy foam, simply exhaling blows it away and creates an air pocket.
i336
Everywhere else in this thread is saying it's soap and 1% trimethyl-trimethylene glycol, which is apparently carcinogenic. T-shirt FTW.
ChewSoap
It is not a known carcinogen.

Oh ok then.

But: no fire, so it worked.

I'm 90% sure that foam is insanely carcinogenic. We have had issues with it in Australia.
dartech2461
How? Did the dumb cunt drink it?
EngineerZero
Google Williamtown / Newcastle water contamination. It's pretty far reaching.
EngineerZero
Besides direct exposure to workers, it Washed into local waterways. Then fish were contaminated and consumed when caught. Pretty fucked up

Welcometoyouredoom
Well idk how you spill it since about 95% of hangars have this system built into the ceiling, but ok let's call it a spill, not an oops I..
Welcometoyouredoom
Pulled the wrong handle and could have potentially killed a few people in the process..
ChewSoap
Not toxic and safe to be around. Total damage is less than 10k USD

Smario322
Very corrsive to the aircraft and other metals. Everything has to get washed. Pain in the ass. But, yeah, the environment too.
ilovegiraffeees
2/2 ventilation and fresh air is available, it shouldn't be very harmful at all
Humbabah
Only a little
Djkb6718
Yup, very. Lots of issues and lawsuits are associated with ground water contamination.
ilovegiraffeees
No. It's Aqueous film forming foam.only danger is when it sits too long it generates H2S. And seeing as these were in a place where 1/2
Justheretospoutnonsense
Dunno about toxic, but it's very hard on equipment if it gets inside. Happened at Bombardier and totalled a plane that my buddy flew
ShootYourGooMyDude
Your buddy flies Bombardier planes? Brave man.
Brosius
You can suffocate in it. So it's deadly in that sense.
ilovegiraffeees
Not entirely true. The H2S content has to be 100 ppm to be IDLH. Halon 1301 and PKP as well as CO2 can cause suffocation in closed spaces
AwkwardlyUncomfortable
Me reading your comment like
Brosius
PKP is a dry chem, this is foam. Most likely AFFF.
ilovegiraffeees
No kidding... That's why I said its AFFF... Basic Damage Control...
Brosius
Halon 1301 is not AFFF
PinkGoddessAlice
The wells in our community (near a Navy base) are ruined because of contamination with that foam.

Fire is just energy. Smoke is toxic.

But the toxicity of fire depends on the material that is burning..

No, all fire is extremely bad for life if the fire gets inside of it.
