Students receiving training during the Aerospace Physiology Apprentice Course at the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine maintain appropriate social distancing requirements April 1. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend people ensure they maintain at least six feet distance between themselves and others to avoid getting sick by sharing the COVID-19 virus. This course awards the 4M AFSC to assist in managing altitude chambers, emergency procedures, and high-altitude operations. Students follow-on to flight medicine shops across the Air Force to assist aviators in remaining current and cleared for flying status. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt. Matthew Smith)
USAFSAM experts operate only anthropometric device for pilot height waivers
Jessica Barker, an aeromedical technician at the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine, measures the sitting height of a pilot candidate using the only official anthropometric device for measuring those who fall outside height standards. Seven measurements are collected and uploaded into a waiver system to determine if height for each candidate is truly an eliminating factor to fly manned aircraft.
