A barrier (1) for providing isolation between two internal volumes within an aircraft, comprises: a wall section adapted for location within an aircraft, the wall section having an aperture (6, 7) formed therein; mounting means located on the wall section proximate the aperture (6, 7); and a substantially planar burst panel (8) member having first and second opposingly-facing sides, the burst panel member adapted for location within the mounting means and dimensioned so as to overlie the aperture when received by the mounting means; the burst panel member comprising a line of weakness (16) provided therein, adapted such that, in use, exposure of the burst panel member to an atmospheric pressure differential between air volumes respectively adjacent the first and second sides exceeding a predetermined value causes the burst panel member to rupture along said line of weakness.
