- Ultralight Aviation and Hypoxia: Pilot Perspec- tives on Cerebral Oximetry MonitorizationPublication . Zorro, Sara; Silva, Jorge; Patrão, LuisThe current study features collected information from a heterogeneous group of pilots regarding their prior experiences of hypoxia. The study focuses on whether the group of assembled pilots has received hypoxia training and on their perceptions of the trainings relevancy. Also analyzed is whether the installation of a physiological monitoring system would be considered by pilots as being relevant to improving flight safety. A monitoring system for brain oximetry was tested in light aviation pilots during real flight conditions
- Air transportation: perception and impact of passengers with reduced mobilityPublication . Zorro, Sara; Macário, Rosário; Silva, JorgeAir transport has many restrictions for persons with reduced mobility (PRM). This study aims to better understand the needs of PRMs and the main constraints they face within airports and aircraft. The passengers’ air rights and how they are being met for PRMs were analysed. An online survey was used to gather information about accessibility constraints and PRMs’ perception of air travel. The specific regulations for these passengers are not being properly complied with. There is still room for both airports and airlines to improve PRM experience during air travel.
