Among diverse aeronautical mission requirements there are those in which valid provisions for emergency aircrew pressurization are distinctly indicated. On the other hand, the various liabilities of emergency aircrew pressurization equipment compel a continuing reconsideration of the need for such devices. Experience suggests that there is merit in waiving the requirement for capsule and suit pressure devices when the flight time slightly above 50,000 feet is infrequent and brief. In the initial design of aircraft, it appears economical in weight, design, and cost to require a pressure suit retrofit capability in the event that the mission requirements later change. (Author)
