Hypoxia and Flight Performance of Military Instructor Pilots in a Flight Simulator

Abstract

Military aircrew and other operational personnel frequently perform their duties at altitudes posing a significant hypoxia risk, often with limited access to supplemental oxygen. Despite the significant risk hypoxia poses, there are few studies relating it to primary flight performance, which is the purpose of the present study, Methods.
