Steve Reeves:  To select the oxygen system for you, you need to decide if you 
are willing to spend the extra few hundred bucks per person for the EDS system 
and whether you are willing to pay for the super light weight bottle. 
Everything else is a matter of measuring how much space you have when 
specifying the bottle size and having the sales guy make sure you get the 
necessary tubing and fittings.  I went with the K-11 system I think it's 
called.  It's the 11 cubic feet glass fiber bottle with EDS system for one 
person.  It has the XCR regulator.  Cost: $1650.  I later added a second EDS 
box for the passenger and associated tubing for around $600.  The EDS thing is 
a little electronic box that meters out the right amount of oxygen at the 
start of your inhalation.  It conserves the maximum amount of oxygen and has 
settings which turn it on automatically at an altitude you set, like 5,000 
feet or 10,000 feet, etc.  It's a terrific product.  I went with the portable 
tank, but you can set it up for hard installation to the aircraft if you want.
