Hypoxia training in Canada or NorthEast US

[Houman]

Hi, did'nt want to hijact the TBM thread so staring a new one.

 

With the 2 General aviation Hypoxia related accidents In the last month, I was wondering if anyone knows a Canadian company or government/military entity in the eastern Canada, that would give hypoxia training to civilian pilots, I know it is available in the US by the FAA, but looking for the equivalent in Canada.

 

If there is US company or entity in the Northeast that does the same thing and they are open to Canadian civilian pilots, I would be interested as well...

 

I have done couple of Google searches, and they all seem to come up with mountain high altitude training, but not specific hypoxia chamber training, maybe I'm not searching for the right terms.

 

 

Thanks

I would call the folks at Transport Canada and ask. A few years ago I could have given you the name of a contact, but I'm sure he is long retired now.

I did it years ago...MAPA SF had a high alt weekend in Atlantic City. It was very good. We did the alt chamber at the AF base and we all got a high alt sign off when the weekend was done. John Pallante, Robert Achtel and others did a great job with it.

I did both of my courses at the University of North Dakota. (You've got to love North Dakota in February.) You could check with them for scheduling and fees. As I remember, they were very reasonable.

If you find yourself in Vancouver, SFU has a chamber.

Thanks, I saw that, but I'm on the eastern side...
