A snippet from an upcoming episode describing physiology of free flight. In this talk, we break down the environmental factors that every pilot flying big mountains needs to understand: oxygen deficiency, cold exposure, G-forces, and sun exposure. You'll learn: - The altitude threshold where hypoxia begins - How to recognize your personal "hypoxic signature" before it's too late - Why shivering increases your oxygen demand by 5x - How cold, dehydration, and fatigue compound the risk - Whether supplementary oxygen is worth the "faff" 🌍Soaring High Resources: Elevate Your Aerial Pursuits The content I can't stop braggin about 😝 ⁠⁠ Instagram⁠ (https://www.instagram.com/anindersingh13/)
