| Don't Stress on the Altitude
I want to make it clear that I think you all have been giving great advice. As has been pointed out, many, many cadets have had to go through the acclimation process and geting into the best shape you can before you arrive - where ever you are - is the best advice to give.
I just wanted to point out that there are some legit options for altitude training at sea level, although IMHO not very practical for the average appointee. The breathing trainer question that started off the thread is not really one of them.
Also, from what I can tell the altitude acclimation study would provide some valuable data to the USAF. There is data out there, but the sample sizes are small so there is a good reason why the study would be useful.
O.K. off with the scientist hat...Have a good one! |
