Hypoxia kills. No pilot would knowingly or willingly fly an aircraft with an unpredictable fault in the cockpit pressurization/O2 system.

Jeez — we have been sending folks into space for a long time now. Seems reasonable to me that a “Murphy” proof cockpit pressurization/O2 system is within reach?

Seems that as of March, investigators were still puzzled about the problem.

I was thinking about Chinese made parts for the SNAFUs.

G-forces? This is like owning a Ferrari, but you aren't allowed to put it into 6th gear.:(

Something weird is happening if they haven't been able to figure out the issue. It should not be that hard to debug the hardware, which makes me wonder about the software.

After all, we all remember back about 5 years ago, or maybe 6 years ago, when a group of F-22s flew across the date line and started having computer failures. I really wonder about the software. From what's been said publicly, they've looked at the whole system, top to bottom, looking for ways fumes could be introduced or oxygen restricted.

I'm surprised at how many times F-22s have been grounded for this issue over the past year.
