  useful consciousness because oxygen in the lungs is exhaled rapidly, reducing pressure on the body. This decreases the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood and reduces the pilot’s effective performance time by one-third to one-fourth ... Cabin pressurization instruments. The primary danger of decompression is hypoxia. Quick, proper utilization of oxygen equipment is necessary to avoid unconsciousness. Another potential danger that pilots, crew, and passengers face during high altitude decompressions is evolved gas decompression sickness. This…

  Chapter 4: Principles of Flight › Effect of Pressure on Density

  Effect of Pressure on Density Since air is a gas, it can be compressed or expanded. When air is compressed, a greater amount of air can occupy a given volume. Conversely, when pressure on a given volume ... doubled; if the pressure is lowered, the density is lowered. This statement is true only at a constant temperature. Effect of Temperature on Density Increasing the temperature of a substance decreases its density. Conversely, decreasing the temperature increases the density…

  Passengers can also be pilots. If no one is designated as pilot in command (PIC) and unplanned circumstances arise, the decision-making styles of several self-confident pilots may come into conflict. Pilots also need to understand that non-pilots ... risk elimination. While a pilot may feel comfortable with the risk present in a night IFR flight, the passengers may not. A pilot employing SRM should ensure the passengers are involved in the decision-making and given tasks and duties…

  Defenses Provided by the Pilot or Crew Certain pilot behaviors defend against threats and errors. Clear Communication and Briefings Whether operating as a single pilot or as part of a crew, clear and concise communication is the foundation for sharing ... information and conveying intentions. When communicating with ATC or during crew briefings, each pilot should agree on the plan of action, ask for clarification, and question any inconsistency. Effective Situational Awareness Situational awareness may include knowing: • Aircraft position • Flight Path…
