  • This video describes many of the aeromedical factors that pilots should consider before taking off. These include: hypoxia, hyperventilation, middle ear and sinus problems, spatial disorientation, motion sickness, carbon monoxide poisoning, stress and fatigue, and dehydration. We also cover the effects of alcohol, drugs, and over-the-counter medications, as well as the effects of excess nitrogen during scuba dives upon a pilot or passenger in flight.

    i remember the first time I flew on the decent i got to feel the sinus part in this video, had a light cold and man alive the pilot decended quickly and it felt like someone hooked to claw hammers into my face and started ripping it off, it was so goddamn painful. I learned to start taking ibuprofen about 45 minutes before landing that helped a lot as far as having mild sinus blockage i didn't notice. don't fly if you got a cold!!

    Great lesson. People who underwent hyperbaric chamber medical treatments should not fly as it's the same as driving and doing decompression stops. It also changes the shape of the eye ball so vision may be blurred but should clear in a few months.

    There are several mistakes on this video. Some of the most notorious errors are in the vision section. The retina photo position is wrong, you should turn it 90º to the right. The blind spot is not in the center of the visual field but lateral, close to the nasal border. In fact, that yellowish/whiteish disc you see on the retina picture is the optic nerve so that's where the blind spot is located. On the retina's center is located the fovea, which is the zone that produces the sharpest vision, the color and detail perception and the recognition of far objects. Thank you

    One mistake:
    The regs say that any scuba dive up to 8,000 ft that does NOT require a controlled ascent should wait 12 hours before flying. If the dive requires a controlled ascent, that person should wait 24 hours. A person flying ABOVE 8,000 ft should wait 24 hours before flying regardless of the ascent type

      nobody has ever been scuba diving to 8000 feet as the world record is just over 1000 feet. the pressures at 8000 feet would crush the human body. But if it were possible to dive to 8000 feet it would most definitely require a controlled ascent as no deco times at 100 feet are just a few minutes.

    I'm a smoker, 29 years of age , 70 lbs overweight.. psych history, drug abuse history with 5 years clean time thank God. On 4 psych meds, and stable.. but they're probably meds which aren't OK with the FAA because one's an amphetamine and the other two controlled are depressants, opioid and a benzodiazepine. I wish I could fly but when I know I'm not mentally or physically as well off as I was before I went down a bad path in life in my early 20's, it'd be selfish to put myself and more importantly to me, others, at risk by getting in an aircraft. Maybe I'll improve my health but maybe not ... if so, will see if I can get at least a recreational or sport license. I fly X-Plane 11 on legs usually to or from KBDL, like KPHL to KBDL or KIAD to KBDL, in the Rotate MD-80 and some good freeware 737-800 :) Know more than most about aviation but real world is diff.. and in my sim I'm safe..

      This might seem like bad news, but I’m afraid that ‘s not a fantastic combination of meds (Ok, I admit that’s euphemistic).
      Kudos on your journey so far, but you may be aware that these med classes you mentioned are drugs of abuse/dependence, albeit in ‘controlled use’, as ‘replacement’. You might want to consider having a review of those meds with the psychiatrist or drug treatment service you might be attending (I don’t know your country of residence), and then explore doing some Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. This is by no means, an attempt to minimise your journey or experiences.
      That said, the main hurdle to a flying career, as you might have guessed, would be obtaining your aviation medical certificate.
      Your passion for flying is very palpable, and it is worth pursuing with everything you’ve got.
      It is very doable, so, do keep your dream of flying alive, I hope it is fulfilled some day.
      All the best.

    fun fact: I got hit in the face a few times on separate occasions a couple years ago (that sounds bad out of context.....so I'm going to leave it like that. 😄) and when I would preform the valsalva maneuver, air would come out of the tear duct area of my left eye.
    this happened when I was a kid too, after wanting to 'play baseball with the big kids', didn't know how to play baseball, agreed to be catcher, then caught a bat to the face. 🤦‍♂️
    short story long (no, that wasn't a mistake): apparently, damage to the nasal passages (im assuming. my doctor didn't know and I'm surely not a doctor) causes issues with sinus pressure.
    Bonus Fact: as a kid, my wife had two occasions....once while flying, once after flying....where she said the pressure on her eardrums were so bad, she had just accepted that they were going to burst. the time after flying, she wasn't diving all that deep but it was deeper than she was used too and in a city that was about 1,500 ft lower in altitude. I know that correlation doesn't equate to causation, so hear me out.
    the time while flying, she was flying to Hawaii and it was while crusing that the pain was so intense that the acceptance of being deaf became a reality for her.
    we were just talking about it yesterday, in fact.
    ......then I watched this tonight and learned something that explains everything: last year, she was 'diagnosed' with having some 'condition' where her eustation tubes are formed differently than others, causing them to get easily blocked. it causes her to get buildup that can lead to her losing hearing until the blockage is removed. This video explained by her condition and subsequent blockage would cause pain during many different conditions, not just swimming or flying.....neither of which are the cause of the issue, just the catalyst.
    thanks! 👍

      Has your wife been able to permanently clear the blockage in her ears ? I have experienced the same exact symptoms to an exact since 2015. Only been prescribed otc nasal decongestants like Afrin. Very painful to habitually live with until the blockage clears. For me, I was heading back from a flight leaving Houston. Doctors said air was trapped in my ears, which then turned into fluid, which then became “eustachian tube dysfunction” and very annoying blockages. Have you been able to help your wife permanently fix these blockages?
