The chamber flight is a natural
follow on to the High altitude signoff. Classroom
training is reinforced by an altitude chamber
flight letting the students experience their own
personal symptoms of hypoxia in a controlled setting.
Accompanying the hypoxia training is a controlled
“sudden decompression”.
Educational lectures, combined
with hands-on demonstrations, prepare the pilots
to recognize potential problems associated with
humans in flight and teach the pilots how to respond
correctly.

In
conjunction with Oklahoma State University’s Center for
Aerospace and Hyperbaric Medicine the following classes
are offered. Each aviation physiology course begins in
the classroom. These sessions meet FAA requirements and
are designed to teach pilots about the physiological
challenges associated with flight.
