More Information
Summary:Eskisehir Military Hospital makes aircrew's periodic health examinations annually and five yearly. And Aircrew's Health Research and Training Center give physiological trainings to aircrew five yearly. Physiological Training is necessary, because; pilots who are knowledgeable about physiological phenomena encountered in the aviation environment are better prepared to deal with such potentially fatal in-flight events. In our center we have six physiological training devices; Hypobaric Chamber (Altitude Chamber), Spatial Disorientation Training Device, Human Centrifuge, Night Vision Trainer, Ejection Seat Trainer, Hyperbaric Chamber. Turkish Aeromedical Center's goal is to achieve an advanced level in physiological training of aircrew and to keep this acquired behavior for future flight safety. Our objectives are; to keep the details of academical training up to date and to upgrade the physiological training devices according to the need of aviation and changing technology.
