The Lear does have an emergency pressurization system. When the
cabin altitude reaches (I believe) 12,000' there is a valve that
opens and puts full, uncooled bleed air into the cabin. There is no
mistaking when this happens; it is loud and it is hot.
Yeah, I'll bet that is exciting!
Let's see, death by altitude blackout, or death by cooking like a
lobster. Which would I choose? g
Interesting. I didn't know that. I wonder why the Payne Stewart
plane (Lear 35) did not have that system activate.
oh brother.
