n addition to what he says the effects of hypoxia onset versus
altitude is very un linear. The armed Forces mandate oxygen use
above 10,000 ft but you can easily survive for very long periods
at 20,000 while sitting quietly (I've done it) but increase this

Sure. But you can't operate a bombsight with any degree of accuracy under those
conditions. Keep your mask on. And at night from the ground up.
