Air crews breathe easy with aerospace physiology

A U.S. Air Force 86th Operations Support Squadron pilot operates a simulated aircraft while hooked up to the 86th Aerospace Medicine Squadron Aerospace Physiology’s reduced oxygen breathing device on Ramstein Air Base, Germany, Sept. 13, 2017. Air crew personnel flying over 10,000 feet have a higher risk of experiencing hypoxia, the lack of oxygen at high altitudes, and the ROBD familiarizes crewmembers with the affects so they are prepared to handle them while flying.
