[QUOTE="RJAMT, post: 1212344, member: 87440"] In flight training they put us in an altitude chamber and took us up to 40,000 ft, then we had to take turns removing our oxygen masks and doing a series of simple tasks such as organizing blocks, counting objects, etc. When we started to pass out from oxygen deprivation the instructors put our mask back on and, when we recovered, we had to record our symptoms. Some people got severe headaches, others got tunnel vision or color blindness, etc. The point was to recognize your symptoms so you could (hopefully) detect and react to a slow loss of cabin pressure. The principal is the same as distance riding and several other activities. Get to know your signs and never ignore them. They are trying to save your life if you just let them. [/QUOTE]
