Let me preface this by saying I know *nothing* about oxygen bottles. Never had to use one in the King Air, and I've never sucked on the stuff in anything unpressurized...
I have in my possession, one Scott oxygen bottle that is calendar expired...
It's the backup bottle out of our PC-12, and can no longer be used in anything certified. It is currently empty, and capped off. My question is, is the bottle usable and safe, or is the expiration a hard and fast rule?
Need some schooling on this. I never intended to put oxygen in, but getting up that high could be useful...
