Re: DA62 covered in foam
This seems to happen with some frequency. Guidance on the requirements for foam fire suppression have been updated since data show that inadvertent releases of foam have caused more damage than the proper release of foam has prevented. Plus, chemicals in the foam are known to cause cancer.
