Aviation physiology is a highly relevant field to flyers of
unpressurized aircraft that flew at altitudes in excess of 25,000
feet. Crew members had to contend with severe environmental factors
while flying long bombing missions during WWII. The limits of human
physiology must be the main concern of any battle plan involving
flyers and fatality/mortality rates should be the primary focus in
evaluating the success or failure of such a plan. The purpose of
this research project is to determine if human factors were
overlooked intentionally or by accident. If they were overlooked
unintentionally, then what was done to resolve the physiological
problems of the aircrews? The project will also underscore the
continued need to address the human machine during any plan in
today's demanding aviation environment.
