Where should you stow the PBE after use?

Explanation:
After use, the PBE must be returned to an approved stowage area so it stays protected and ready for the next need. The best practice is to place it in an overhead bin or under a seat, as long as it’s kept away from heat sources or fire. This keeps it secure, prevents clutter or obstruction, and ensures quick access in an emergency. Stowing it in the lavatory trash bin is unsafe and unhygienic, and the cockpit closet isn’t an approved PBE storage location.
