"Peter Duniho" wrote in message Blue fingernails are one of the *last* signs of hypoxia. Unless you had a CO leak or something like that, you'd never have blue fingernails at modest altitudes, even though using oxygen will significantly improve your state of mind. Actually, if you have CO in the cockpit, you won't get cyanosis either, dang insidous thing about CO poisoning is that it leaves the tissues nice and red. |

Like I said, I noted the same phenomenon with the noise cancelling
headbands sold by Brookstone. I did use those in the plane and found that it still was present in the plane, and did get uncomfortable very quickly. If I get a chance, I'll try it with a purpose made set, but I really don't expect the results to be any different. The headband thingy did the same thing as the headsets on the ground, no reason to expect it to be different in the air. Dan Luke wrote: "Ray Andraka" wrote: It may well be.

You guys fly that low? Isn't it scary? My transponder is in for
service and I am having to fly below 10,000' MSL and it sucks. Turbulent and too may other planes around. Note that my field elevation is almost 6900'. And yes I installed O2 earlier this year. Ron Lee Ya know, that's exactly what I was thinking going to Houston Sunday at 8,000 ft. After a couple of hours I was feeling a bit groggy and wondering if a sniff might be just the thing to perk me up. My daughter was nodding and my grandson was getting cranky. It's time for a bottle and some cannulas, I think. -- Dan C172RG at BFM |

Dan,
I had a reply half-written, then discarded it for the sake of peace (and Pete) ;-) -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |
