It is a good idea to have some fire extinquishers around in prominent places.

No note of what country you are in and what sort of firemen, and fire departments are available to you for consultation.p] You can typically test most any system by simply turning it on, and seeing if it works.

This is simple, but not always recommended as in the case of sprinkler systems in high rise buildings.

Most airports have a fire department who you call for advice on how to prevent fires, or you call when one gets out of hand.

If you don't have a Fire Department sort of institution where you live, suggest that you adopt normally adopted practices.

I've worked in many an aircraft hangar, and typically there was a fire extinquisher put on the wall by the doors.

As well there was a fire department to call if a fire got out of hand.

Actually I did start a fire once, but was able to put it out before it got on the tv news.

In that case I grabbed the fire extinquisher out of the plane by the door, where they normally keep them. Lucky for me it had a little charge left, and I knew how to use it.

Fill the bladder with churned Chicken guts and put it on the roof. Run hoses from the chicken gut churned filled foam bladder down to inside of the hangar.

Be sure to step down the hosing to increase pressure since you want to be able to provide chicken gut foam for fire suppression at some distance from the fire.

When the fire starts, tell everybody what to do as fire suppression supervisor.

If this sort of insane bullshit doesn't appeal to you, I strongly suggest you get some fire put out bottles and call the fire department, or make a fire department, or find another job.

As per your request I actually reread your original post.

In ten years of working on airports, with planes, in and out of hangars we had fire extinquishers around, and otherwise called the airport fire department.

Never saw a "blader tank" full of fire suppressor.

This must be a joke.
