Physiological studies on air tanker pilots flying forest fire retardant missions

Pre-flight and post-flight studies were carried out on five air tanker pilots; in-flight studies were carried out on four of these five pilots. Pre- and post-flight studies consisted of a questionnaire and determinations of blood pressure, psychomotor performance and urine chemistry for stress metabolites. In-flight studies consisted of ECG, rectal temperature, cockpit temperature and voice transmissions, all continuously recorded on magnetic tape. (Author).
