Yea, I've never even heard of that before. It's great to know your options when you need your voice heard.

Alot credit is due to those guys. Problem with those situations, nothing gets done until there is a mishap and one does hit a school or such. Then they ground the fleet until it's changed, not the right way. Easily risked their careers to say the least.

With hypoxia, risking a career is a much better option than losing your life due to unconscienceness. Besides, they're Guard guys with full-time jobs elsewhere. When the the AF did lose a life partly due to this situation, they initially put the blame on the pilot.
