Thanks to Ted Noel for a really clear explanation of the use of oxgen.  As a
diver who once used an oxygen rebreathing set I am familiar with the effect
of high partial pressure of oxygen at depths below 30feet, I have never had
problems the other way around although my home airport was at 5500feet and
we regularly operated at 10,000 plus without oxygen.  However I was in my
twenties, now I am in my 60,s and less disposed to push the envelope.

How would atrial fibrillation effect the flow of blood and therefore the
absorption of oxygen.  Would a person with this condition, who is passed fit
to fly, find the the onset of oxygen deprivation taking place earlier?

Regards

Ian Crowe
