With the conquest of the skies, humanity has tested its physiology, pushing the human body to unimaginable limits. As aviation advanced, the body became increasingly exposed to various situations that began to cause physiological conditions throughout the organism. Pressure changes, temperature variations, radiation exposure, among others.
Aviation Physiology is a work dedicated to the study and analysis of the main conditions to which the human body is exposed during air activities or operations. It is essential for the pilot and any crew member to be fully aware of everything happening in their body during both normal and abnormal flight conditions. This knowledge will equip you with the necessary tools to take appropriate preventive measures to safeguard your health and that of everyone else on board.
A groundbreaking work, fully supported by the most successful aeronautical library in the Americas. This manual unveils the mysteries of various medical situations that occur during flight, many of which are rarely covered in global aeronautical literature.
Our special thanks go to the entire team of medical and aeronautical professionals who made this work possible by contributing their vast knowledge and experiences throughout their successful professional careers. Their input has helped to offer an unprecedented manual to the aviation world, making it the perfect complement for every pilot and their study materials. Our special thanks to: Capt. Facundo Conforti, Dr. Hector Arano, Dr. Roxana Zaralegui, Dr. Ernesto Santos, Capt. Augusto Figueroa, Nutritionist Rosario Pandeo, Aeronautical Psychologist Ezequiel Ramirez, Capt. Martin Perez Ardanaz, and the entire team of aviation professionals who have enriched this book with their personal experiences.
