Exposure suit?
How effective is that thing? I had to wear one of those damn Navy Poopy
suits flying a T38 out of NATC Pax River. If I had to go into the
Chesapeake Bay in December, I think the damn thing gave me an extra 5
minutes before I froze to death. Severely restricted stick travel as
well and took a half hour to get into! :-))

About 5 to 10 min in the North Atlantic enough to maybe get in the raft
then you have a half day or so.



Interesting; about the same as the military suit. Looks well made, and
might be a tad more comfortable and easy to move about in :-)
