While flying high-speed military aircraft, pilots frequently hyperventilate to a degree sufficient to induce marked alkalosis. Psychogenic factors are thought to be responsible for the hyperventilation. Comparison was made of pre- and postflight plasma bicarbonate (determined titrimetrically) and corticosteroid levels (Sweat's technique) for 20 instructor pilots and 47 student pilots flying F-100 aircraft for 50 minutes. No differentiation of students and instructors was possible on the basis of either pre- or postflight values; therefore, the data for the two groups were combined. The plasma bicarbonate value following the flight was 1.1 ± .24 mEq/l. (mean ± S.E.) lower than before the flight. Free 17-hydroxycorticosterone was increased 5.8 ± .70 μg/100 ml, while conjugated 17-hydroxycorticosterone increased 5.7 ± .75. The free corticosterone-like fraction increased 3.1 ± .34 μg/100 ml, while the conjugated corticosterone-like fraction increased 3.2 ± .35. Each of these changes was significantly different from zero (P < .001). No statistically significant correlation was found between the fall in bicarbonate and any of the increases in steroid fractions.

Abstract The paper deals with the process of shaping the operational effectiveness of military aircraft under some specific circumstances, i.e. while flying on missions. The term ‘effectiveness’ has been assumed to mean the probability of accomplishing an air mission by one of the aeronautical system’s components, i.e. the aircraft together with its pilot. There is a chance to improve the effectiveness, or make it worse, in subsequent flights, depending on how the maintenance support function. The correct operation and maintenance of the system’s components should provide that the following condition is satisfied: * Pk ≥ P , where Pk - effectiveness in the k-th flight, and P* - the lower demanded limit of effectiveness. The Authors drew their inspiration for this paper from publication [2].
