diver
| getting sick at about 200 feet below the surface who
threw
| up into his Aqua-Lung filling both of the hoses that
| connected to the regulator. This was before the
addition of
| check valves in the breathing tubes.

| | Brings back memories :-)
| | I've always wondered about those so called $100
hamburger
| flights. Actually,
| | for me in the Mustang, or occasionally in the Bearcat,
| those burgers were a
| | bit more expensive :-)
| | If I remember right, most of those airport hamburgers
| bought at those little
| | "airport cafe's on the fields were grilled and
dripping
| with grease. Just
| | the thing to settle the old stomach down for a weekend
| pilot. Add this to
| | the stress of a hot cockpit on a summer day and a new
| pilot getting "just a
| | little bit lost " on the way home and it's a wonder
more
| people didn't end
| | up puking in the seat pockets :-))
| | We had a bevy of line boys who were supposed to take
care
| of things like
| | that, but it seems to me remembering back now, that
every
| damn time it
| | happened, I was the only one on the scene to take care
of
| it :-))

| | I've been lucky or smooth, never had anybody mess up
the
| | cockpit. Did have one student who came out to fly
and
| | brought his sister along for the ride, a dual
| cross-country
| | from Wichita to Emporia, Marion, Newton and back to
| Wichita.
| | About half way to Emporia they both became ill.
Seems
| they
| | had stopped for hamburgers for lunch and both also
were
| not
| | feeling well before take-off.
| | I had plenty (?) of sic-sacks and they used them.
When
| we
| | got to Emporia we threw the used bags in the trash
ands
| | bought all the sic-sacks they had at the airport, 4
to
| | restock the airplane. We also took a while to
settle
| down.
| | But half way to Marion the hamburgers took over
again
| and
| | shortly they had used all four new bags. Then they
| still
| | got ill because of the smell. She dumped the
aircraft
| | paperwork in the seat pocket at my instruction and
used
| the
| | zip lock portfolio and he used the right hand pocket
of
| his
| | NEW sports coat.
| | I, being the superior pilot/CFI with a nose used to
| | shoveling horse droppings and even some pigs [I was
a
| "pile
| | it" , before I became an aviator] was able to resist
the
| | need for myself. And the smell is still in my
nostrils.
| |
| | hen I was learning to be a CFI, I asked my friend
and
| | instructor at Spartan (Auggie) how to handle air
sick
| | students and was told that in the Cessna 150-172
| airplanes,
| | open the window and stick their head outside. Never
had
| to
| | do that.
| |
| | BTW, that student is now an FAA Inspector

| | | big ----- deal, also BFH = big hammer, tfc too
cold
| | |
| | | The 121 pilots have a full support staff to help
| with
| | flight
| | | planning and a crew to bring and serve the
coffee.
| The
| | 135
| | | charter pilot has the best and worst job, gets
paid
| to
| | fly
| | | pretty good airplanes but has to carry the
luggage,
| do
| | all
| | | the flight planning, brew and serve the coffee,
and
| | clean
| | | the potty.
| | |
| | | .................not to mention the cockpit vomit,
| which
| | is a smell that
| | | never really leaves the airplane, and I can still
| mentally
| | visualize to this
| | | very day .
