Flight Medicine enables pilot training

Capt. (Dr.) Matthew Lindsey, left, 56th Aerospace Medicine Squadron Flight Medicine flight surgeon, and Staff Sgt. Brian Lamar, 56th AMDS Flight Medicine technician, simulate a response to an in-flight emergency on the Luke Air Force Base flightline. The ambulance and crew responds to any situation that may have an impact on a pilot, such as a loss of cabin pressure. If the situation is nonemergent, the patient returns to the flight medicine facility for treatment. If it is emergent, a flight medicine doctor will accompany the pilot to the nearest medical facility.
