Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 2015 Woodhead Publishing hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: Handbook of Offshore Helicopter Transport Safety explores topics including safety management systems, safety briefings, survival equipment, underwater egress training, water impact/ditching statistics, and search and rescue. Each area of interest details pertinent information spanning approximately 30 years of offshore operations. The first three chapters look at helicopter underwater escape training (HUET) programs, their development, and training, safety regulations, standards, and decision-making in extreme environments. Subsequent chapters cover physiological and psychological responses to HUET and cold-water immersion, followed by three final chapters on the fidelity of simulation in HUET, emergency breathing systems, and helicopter transportation suits.
