1.12 PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF FLYING

1.12.1 Pressurization- Hypoxia

The human body requires a certain amount of oxygen to function normally. It is therefore
necessary, when aircraft fly at high altitudes, where there is insufficient oxygen in the air, to
artificially supply oxygen for the crew and passengers, which is approximately equivalent to
the oxygen amount normally available on the ground.

Oxygen is normally supplied to the passengers and crew in flight, by pressurizing the aircraft
cabin to an approximate altitude of 6000 feet, regardless of the lower pressure of the outside
air and the consequent reduction in the oxygen.

1. CABIN CREW MANAGEMENT

Cabin Crew Manual Document Reference:


RNG/FLT/2/CCM
The air inside the cabin and flight deck is maintained at a pressure about equal to the normal
pressure in which humans live. Provisions are made on the aircraft for a supply of oxygen for
crew and passengers, should a decompression of the aircraft occur.

This supply is (oxygen) comprised of fixed cylinders, supply lines and masks for the flight
crew. Portable Oxygen Bottles described in chapter 3, are provided for cabin crew and
passengers (for first aid).

The most noteworthy effects and symptoms of oxygen deficiency (hypoxia) are:

1. Slowness and confusion of the mental process. Perhaps without the victim being aware
of them;

2. Impaired vision, early in the process, and later hearing will be affected;

3. Urge for rapid deep breathing may be felt, but should be resisted because of other
physiological changes that might result;

4. The skin will be pale and moist and there may be bluish discoloration of lips, finger tips
and earlobes;

5. Continued exposure can result in unconsciousness or death.

The degree of hypoxia varies according to the amount of oxygen deficiency, and its onset
depends on the rate of decompression.

The danger of hypoxia is that not only does the subject not notice the gradual deterioration,
but he actually experiences a feeling of wellbeing.

Prolonged exposure to severe hypoxia could result in brain damage. At 40,000 feet, it is
estimated that without oxygen, death would ensue in ninety seconds.

The rate and depth of respiration is usually carefully controlled to maintain adequate intake of
oxygen and steady removal of carbon dioxide (CO2).

Deep breathing without exercise, (hyperventilation), leads to an inappropriate loss of CO2


from the body. After a few minutes, this leads to numbness or tingling of hands and feet,
twitching and even unconsciousness.

Cabin Crew Manual Document Reference:


RNG/FLT/2/CCM

Hyperventilation often accompanies fear or excitement. Holding the breath, breathing into a
paper bag or shallow breathing allows the CO2 to accumulate to its normal level, and cures
symptoms.

The heart works much harder under lack of oxygen. A decreased oxygen demand could result
in a heart failure, particularly if the heart is already weak.
During rapid decompression, a continuous exhalation is experienced as the air in the lungs
expands.

Holding breath would result in bursting of the lungs. Swallowing could cause the throat to
“lock” with the same result.

1.12.2 Time of Useful Consciousness

The time of useful consciousness at any altitude is the maximum length of time the exposed
individual has to perform the useful tasks necessary for his survival (such as donning of an
oxygen mask) after rapid decompression, is shown in the table below:

Table 1.23.2-1
Altitude Time
18,000 feet 20-30 minutes
22,000 feet 5-10 minutes
25,000 feet 3-5 minutes

Renegade Air aircraft usually do not fly higher than 24000feet

1.12.3 Decompression

Uncontrolled Decompression

Uncontrolled decompression refers to an unexpected drop in the pressure of a sealed system,


such as an aircraft cabin.

Where the speed of the decompression occurs faster than air can escape from the lungs, this is
known as explosive decompression (ED), and is associated with explosive violence.

1. CABIN CREW MANAGEMENT

Cabin Crew Manual Document Reference:


RNG/FLT/2/CCM
Where decompression is still rapid, but not faster than the lungs can decompress, this is
known as rapid decompression.

Lastly, slow decompression or gradual decompression occurs so slowly that humans may not
detect it before hypoxia sets in.

Generally uncontrolled decompression results from human error, material fatigue,


engineering failure or impact that causes a pressure vessel either not to pressurize, or to vent
into lower-pressure surroundings.

The term uncontrolled decompression here refers to the unplanned depressurization of vessels
that are occupied by people, for example an aircraft cabin at high altitude, a spacecraft, or a
hyperbaric chamber.

For the catastrophic failure of other pressure vessels used to contain gas, liquids, or reactants
under pressure, the term explosion is more commonly used, or other specialized terms such as
BLEVE may apply to particular situations.

Decompression can occur due to structural failure of the pressure vessel, or failure of the
compression system itself.

The speed and violence of the decompression is affected by the size of the pressure vessel,
the differential pressure between the inside and outside of the vessel and the size of the leak
hole.
The Kenya civil Aviation Authority recognizes three distinct types of decompression events
in aircraft:

i) Explosive decompression/ Rapid decompression

ii) Slow/Gradual decompression

i) Explosive decompression/Rapid decompression

Explosive decompression occurs at a rate swifter than that at which air can escape from the
lungs, typically in less than 0.1 to 0.5 seconds. The risk of lung trauma is very high, as is the
danger from any unsecured objects that can become projectiles because of the explosive
force, which may be likened to a bomb detonation.

Cabin Crew Manual Document Reference:


RNG/FLT/2/CCM
After an explosive decompression within an aircraft, a heavy fog may immediately fill the
interior as the cabin air very rapidly cools and condenses.

ii) Slow/Gradual decompression

Slow, or gradual, decompression occurs slowly enough to go unnoticed and might only be
detected by instruments. This type of decompression may also come about from a failure to
pressurize as an aircraft climbs to altitude.

An example of this is the Helios Airways Flight 522 crash, in which the pilots failed to check
the aircraft was pressurizing automatically and then react to the warnings that the aircraft was
depressurizing.

Bullets cause explosive decompression

Aircraft fuselages are designed with ribs to prevent tearing; the size of the hole is one of the
factors that determines the speed of decompression, and a bullet hole is too small to cause
rapid or explosive decompression.

The most likely cause of hypoxia in high altitude aircraft is loss of aircraft pressurization.
Pressurization loss at altitude through compressor or structural failure is extremely unlikely in
commercial aircraft.

The treatment for hypoxia is the re-establishment of an adequate oxygen pressure in the
lungs. This may be accomplished through the use of an oxygen mask, pressurization, or
descent to a lower altitude. Recovery from hypoxia is usually rapid (within 20 seconds after
oxygen is administered).

The severely hypoxic individual will usually have no memory of having lost consciousness.
Artificial respiration may be necessary in some cases.

Engineering techniques used in the construction of aircraft’s (wedge doors, multipane wedge
windows, fuselage skin ripstoppers), make it unlikely that an involuntary loss of
pressurization will occur.

However, the possibility that decompression might follow some failure of the pressure hull
makes it imperative that all concerned should be aware of the physical characteristics and
physiological effects of pressure loss.

1. CABIN CREW MANAGEMENT

Cabin Crew Manual Document Reference:


RNG/FLT/2/CCM

Decompression effects depend upon several factors, total cabin volume, size of the hole in the
pressure hull, pressure differential and the flight altitude. The first two factors determine the
time required for decompression, while the last two govern the expansion ration for gases
within the cabin and various body cavities.

The time required for equalization of cabin and external pressures during decompression
depends primarily upon the size of the hole or leak in the pressure hull.

If this hole is large enough to allow a rapid loss of pressure, certain physical phenomena will
result. These include an initial noise, followed by rapid movement of cabin air, toward the
hole; this rush of air will carry with it paper, loose clothing, dirt and other light objects lying
in its path.

In addition, there will be a noticeable sudden decrease in cabin air temperature with a marked
fogging, due to moisture condensation in the expanding cabin atmosphere.

Several physiological changes, including a rapid chest expansion, cheek and lip flutter, due to
loss of air from the lungs, transient pain in the ears and sinuses, noticeable feeling of
abnormal fullness due to intestinal gas expansion, and some in communication will also
occur.

The hazard of decompression is not physical damage by the pressure change, but the possible
subsequent hypoxia resulting from exposure to low atmospheric pressure.

In the event of decompression at high altitudes, first consideration must be the administration
of oxygen.

1.12.3.1 Cracked Window

If a window cracks during flight, there is no imminent danger. Flight deck must be informed
immediately:

1. Reseat passengers if possible;

2. Inform passengers to fasten seatbelt;
3. Lead Cabin Attendant keep Flight Deck informed.

If C/C onboard assist Lead Cabin Attendant as needed.

Action of C/C, if onboard:

1. Discontinue all services;


2. Stow all trolleys and secure galley.
3. Secure yourself and think Oxygen.
4. Assist Lead Cabin Attendant as needed.
5. Wait for response from the cockpit ‘Crew resume duties’.
6. Check on the cockpit
7. Administer First Aid and give report to cockpit crew.

1.12.4 Jetlag (Circadian Dysrhythmia)

This is the general orientation and disruption of the body’s natural functions, which is
encountered when passing rapidly through several time zones.

Ensure adequate sleep/rest prior to and between flights. If any continual sleep disturbance is
encountered seek advice from medical doctor.

Precautions to be taken:

1. Rest well before the flight;

2. Try to get as much sleep per 24 hours when you are away on a trip as you would in a
normal 24 hour period at home;

3. Avoid smoking;

4. Drink plenty of fluids, but avoid eating heavily and drinking alcohol or caffeine-
containing beverages before bedtime;

5. Trust your own feelings. If you feel sleepy and circumstances permit, then sleep.
Likewise, if you wake spontaneously and cannot go back to sleep within 30 minutes,
then get up;

6. You may wish to use physical or mental relaxation techniques to assist you to fall
asleep although, once again, if you do not fall asleep in 30 minutes, get out of bed;

7. You may find that a nap is useful in improving alertness, but if taken immediately
before a duty period, then restrict the nap to 45 minutes. A nap will reduce the length of
continuous wakefulness and remember, some sleep is better than none;

8. During the flight, exercise even in your seat will help maintain alertness;

9. A variety of sleeping drugs is available, but these may not be compatible with flying
and may be habit-forming and are not generally recommended.

1.13 JUST CULTURE

A just culture is one in which both individuals and the organization as a whole takes every
opportunity to learn and improve. This includes learning from near misses and incidents,
which can provide vital opportunities for understanding and improving training, processes
and overall service delivery.

All Renegade Air employees are expected to behave in a manner which supports the
Company’s policies and rules. It is the responsibility of each individual to perform his duties,
and the supervisory personnel is responsible for monitoring compliance of duties based on
regulations and company manuals and taking care if rules and regulations are not followed.

If an employee has information applicable to any of the company’s operations, which


includes but is not limited to flight, ground, technical and administrative issues that could
affect safety, the employee must notify his supervisor immediately.

In the event the supervisor is not willing or able to accept this information, then the
individual is free to contact any manager to pursue it further.

Safety Reporting Forms are available through which all staff can use for submitting reports.

It is important that if an employee is or has been involved in actions which could affect safety
applicable to flight, ground or technical or administrative issues, including operational,
technical and airworthiness errors, the employee is encouraged to come forward in the
knowledge that disciplinary action will not be taken by Renegade Air if all of the following
criteria apply:

1. The employee gives full co-operation in the investigation of the event;

2. The employee was not involved in deliberate or criminal misconduct or acts


constituting gross negligence;

3. The employee was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol;

4. The employee neither intended nor was aware that the resulting near miss, error or
incident would occur.
