SharpeXB Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I flew to 25,000' in the A-10C and then shut off the oxygen.

LFCChameleon_Silk Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I think you must wait a bit for the effects to snowball, mind you I've never done this and a few people I know have and it worked but recently some others did it at higher heights and it didn't occur so perhaps its bugged?

benargee Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) If you really want to get the "snowball" rolling, eject the canopy and imagine you're cruising in a convertible as you peacefully fall asleep. On a serious note, doesn't it take a few minutes to inhale all the residual oxygen in the cockpit?

jubus Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Just tested this @30,000 ft, it takes about +30 minutes to get the effects with canopy on. Without canopy it takes only 2-3 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpeXB Posted June 29, 2014 Author Share Posted June 29, 2014 Is the A-10 pressurized? I didn't think so. i9-14900KS | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | 64GB DDR5 5600MHz | iCUE H150i Liquid CPU Cooler | ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 OC | Windows 11 Home | 2TB Samsung 980 PRO NVMe | Corsair RM1000x | LG 48GQ900-B 4K OLED Monitor | CH Fighterstick | Ch Pro Throttle | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Is the A-10 pressurized? I didn't think so. Yes it is. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sceptre Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 That would make sense, 30 minutes sounds about right to breathe in all the oxygen that's in the canopy from when you closed it on the ground.

NoJoe Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 You can also turn off the bleed air instead of ejecting the canopy. It angers the crew chiefs less. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 That would make sense, 30 minutes sounds about right to breathe in all the oxygen that's in the canopy from when you closed it on the ground. Pressurization works by pumping pressurized air into the cabin. You aren't getting hypoxia because there is no oxygen in the air but because the reduced partial pressure means that not enough oxygen is picked up by your erythrocytes. Good, fast, cheap.

SkateZilla Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Errm, I know there's Hypoxia modeled in the Sim. too many times I've rushed through the startup, and completely forgot the O2 Switch, lets just say I thought my GPU was toast.

doright Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 The "Dump" position on the Temp Press is a better option for going happily off into la-la land. The cabin pressure regulator is essentially off until 10k feet. From 10k to about 18k it will maintain cabin pressure at what would be ambient pressure at 10k feet. Above 18k it will maintain the 18k-10k pressure differential (~2.8psi, 190mbar), so the pressure in the cabin will decrease as you climb above 18k.

BeachAV8R Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 too many times I've rushed through the startup, and completely forgot the O2 Switch, lets just say I thought my GPU was toast. Yes, it's a very well done and subtle occurring effect isn't it? Also nice to see the pitot static start to act up in icing very gradually..
