Nick M Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Hit the brakes very hard (or worse a solid object ) and you may find yourself sharing cockpit space with a heavy lump of flying fire extinguisher. Now sadly I'm lead to believe that most of them have somewhat rudimentary flying skills, at best, and can, therefore, be a tad uncontrolled and dangerous. And that's *before* the pin gets knocked out and you end up with a face full of foam / powder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 They ain't Corbeau/Cobra sevens - they am Westfield own Well, they look exactly like Cobra Sevens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Just looked at a picture of some Cobra Roadster Sevens; you're right, they are slightly different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregh Posted September 10, 2002 Author Share Posted September 10, 2002 surely wherever you mount the fire extinguisher it could potentially fly about? Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westy Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 agreed but its better to explode in the passenger footwell than on the dashboard in front of a face? My precaution is just to drink lots of water before I go for a blat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Stanton Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Well, they look exactly like Cobra Sevens! Oh no they don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Greg I think that the Fire extigusher is held in place by a velcro strap, which from memory looked like it would hold it in place, in case of a froun ender Unlike mine which is just held by a clip!

gregh Posted September 10, 2002 Author Share Posted September 10, 2002 yeh I checked it tonight, it has standard clip and secondary velco strap which I reckon is pretty secure. greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardD Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 If you can't tell the difference between plastic and vinyl, i've got this really smart Granada for sale, full leather interior, a bargain !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 I'm sure I've seen Westfield made leather seats in that shade of green at the Factory - at least they told me they were leather. If they're at all creased then they are probably leather. It develops a patina which you don't get with plastic - they look to be circa 20th century to me........ sorry, lost it, what are we talking about ?
