Hi
I am currently in the middle of a STCW95 course which is part of my coxswain ticket.
We are doing the fire rescue at the moment, and have some questions hopefully someone can answer.

We are using 6.8L tanks and are able to fill them direct from a line whilst we are still wearing them. What are the differences in the tank?
How is that I can just go to the compressor and hook it in, why is it less dangerous than filling a scuba tank? Are there any differences?

thanks
