High Altitude Operations

The course covers the topics of flight operations at high altitudes, above 25,000 feet.

Duration: 30 min

ABOUT THE COURSE

Flight operations above 25,000 feet (FL250) are considered to be at high altitudes. In this course, we highlight the risks with those flights and what you can do to reduce the risk of for example hypoxia. A final test completes the course and a course completion certificate will be sent automatically to you.
