First - Read Chapter 3 of Basic Flight Physiology
Pay attention to the Gas Laws. They tie into other lectures and chapters and you will be tested on practicle applications of these laws in aviation and human physiology.
**This is a note taking shell for you to write down information gathered and keep them organized.
The Atmosphere
Link to Flight Chamber Request Procedures
Make-up
Standards
Levels (Divisions of the Atmosphere)
Physiological Zone (Sea Level - 10,000' MSL)
Physiologically Deficient Zone (10,001' MSL and above)
Things to think about:
What process makes the atmoshere closest to the surface of the earth physiologically acceptable for human survival?
What keeps the right amounts of O2/Nitrogen/Other gases and water vapor in the troposphere?
What is a Heat Budget?
