I want to take high altitude training. However when I tried to sign up, the FAA said the Air Force cancelled its altitude chamber agreement and that training is no longer available. Does anybody know differently? They have a psych class taught in Oklahoma City once a month and nothing else.

Bill,
I respectfully disagree. With two such incidents under my belt (n=2) at FL210 and FL 280 my time before stupid consciousness was on the order of 5-10 seconds. Results may vary but you can take training in an altitude chamber and see how you would fare. I agree you need a good hard mask with a built in mic. Mountain High sells such a mask. I know others on this list have had rapid decomps at flight levels and may have different experiences. Ralf had one in his IVP last year.
Best regards,
Jeff
