[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would cause a depressurization event in an aircraft like this one?[/quote] Malfunction of the system, door or window, not sealed properly, etc. My question is woukd this type of aircraft have a detection system that would drop oxygen masks? [/quote]Small business class jets fly higher than commercial airliners often times. They are not equipped with drop down masks but the pilot should have supplemental oxygen. That said, if the plane depressurizes the pilot has seconds, just a few breaths to recognize the problem and get on oxygen, then dive the plane to get down quickly to a breathable altitude, about 15,000 minimum.
