Death by powerpoint!

So today was the first day of Aerospace Phys. Powerpoint all day. We had Physiology in all it's forms, then parachute stuff, and egress. One of the cool parts was night vision (not NVG) and Oxygen intro. They turned off all the lights and had REALLY dark powerpoint slides for the night vision class. You couldn't even see them fully until your eyes adjusted. The Oxygen intro had us in the high altitude chamber (they didn't depressurize it yet) and just ran us through how to use all the stuff (regulator, bottle, etc...).

I guess it was nice to be back in the a flight suit, but whatever. We lost another classmate today. We started with 29, but I guess one didn't make it through IFS at Pueblo, so we never met him. Another was a Capt who's wife was scheduled to have a baby during academics, they rolled him back a few classes, and another Capt got rolled back today for a sinus infection. So we're down to 26. At least the guys I knew weren't booted!!

Chamber ride is tomorrow, as well as practicing strapping in and egress. So it should be interesting!
