(ii) At flight altitudes above flight level 350 unless one pilot at
the controls of the airplane is wearing and using an oxygen mask that
is secured and sealed and that either supplies oxygen at all times or
automatically supplies oxygen whenever the cabin pressure altitude of
the airplane exceeds 14,000 feet (MSL), except that the one pilot need
not wear and use an oxygen mask while at or below flight level 410 if
there are two pilots at the controls and each pilot has a
quick-donning type of oxygen mask that can be placed on the face with
one hand from the ready position within 5 seconds, supplying oxygen
and properly secured and sealed.
The Part 121 requirement for Certificated Aircarriers is more restrictive
than for Part 91 Operators. The FL350 is replaced with FL 250.
