the potential battery malfunctions that can result in violent fires and explosions that are difficult to contain inside a business aircraft. The HOT-STOP®
‘L’ Fire Containment Bag safely
contains fires, explosions and smoke emissions from Lithium Ion powered devices as well as any combustible item aboard an aircraft, without the aid of a water supply. These distinctive HOT-STOP ‘L’ bags have been successfully tested twice in live fire evaluations at the FAA Technical Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey and further independently fire tested by flight departments. The HOT-STOP®
‘L’ fire bag is the only product in this
market to receive burn certifications. The distinctive fire containment bag is different from other products on the market and can be used to store a laptop, tablet, or smart phone when not in use, contain an overheating device, or contain one that is in full thermal runaway. The bags are made up of multiple durable fabrics with a felt inner core that has a 3200ºF melting point which is sandwiched between two outer layers that have a 2080ºF melting point and are proven to absorb the energy and fire while minimizing the escape of smoke, sparks and flames. The bags are worthy of multiple uses but Baker Aviation and IEP believe their HOT-STOP customers deserve a fresh new fire containment bag onboard their business jet for protection without requiring them to purchase a replacement once it is deployed.
The HOT-STOP® line of fire containment bags can
be customized to fit the operator’s need and is currently offered off the shelf in 3 sizes; small for smart phones, medium for passenger or flight deck tablets, and large for laptop computers. Tailored defibrillator device covers are also available to safely contain these lithium ion battery powered devices and the newly developed smart phone bags are available with an additional lining that shields out any cellular reception to discourage cockpit texting and phone use while the aircraft is in operation.

Fire Containment Bags product line, contact Ray Goyco, Jr. at Baker Aviation, the exclusive distributor, at Ray@Baker-

lines — alternators, starters, turbochargers, cabin heaters, and fuel pumps — both organically and through strategic acquisition,” Disbrow says. “The Jasco Alternator line will enable us to begin offering high-quality products to new segments of the general aviation markets including classic and agricultural aircraft and piston helicopters. It is the perfect complement to our current family of alternators.” Available in both 12- and 24-volt systems, and with 50- or 70-amp output, the lighter-weight Jasco Alternators have become the go-to replacement alternators for old pad-mounted generators found on radial engines, as well as, on standard opposing piston engines used on many classic aircraft and piston helicopters. “The reason Jasco Alternators have
been around for nearly 50-years is that they provide great performance and reliability at a reasonable cost,” Disbrow adds. “Once we have certifications in place we’ll assimilate production of the Jasco alternator line into our Montgomery, Alabama facility.”
