Abstract:

The document reports on a method to assess the condition of a pilot by means of hypoxia resistance test which, at repeated examinations, reveals variations of stress resistance, or an amelioration of efficiency, but also a decrease in physical efficiency due to illness. This method is a simple and time-saving one, and is very suitable for the selection and routine examinations of the flying personnel. Author
