OXYGEN DURATION (HOURS)
NOTES:
1. Oxygen duration increases as cockpit pressure altitude increases because there is less ambient pressure
acting upon the lungs. Therefore, a smaller quantity of oxygen at altitude expands the lungs to the same
size that they were at sea level.
2. With two people, decrease NORM/100% oxygen duration by 50 percent.
3. Use of PBG may reduce the listed available oxygen times.

ROUTINE ARRESTMENT
A planned event. Operational conditions are such that each landing requires arrestment. Such
operational conditions include operating from highways or from runways that are too short for
normal landings. The standard factor of safety is used to determine the maximum engagement

EMERGENCY ARRESTMENT
An unplanned event. A reduced factor of safety is accepted and the corresponding maximum en
gagement speed is slightly higher than for a routine arrestment. With a ground level ejection capa
bility, a reduced factor of safety for the arrestment is possible since the pilot can still eject if the
arrestment fails.
