The only way to assure yourself of adequate oxygen delivery to your body is to use a pulse oximeter as OC has pointed out. I highly recommend a pulse oximeter. I wore one in the wave last week to check out my EDS system. I had the EDS set to the standard O2 delivery starting at 10k. At 18k I put on the oximeter - it read 79% under normal nasal breathing. With accelerated breathing I could get it up to 89%. This week I tried the F15 setting (extra O2 volume). I went from 84% to 92% in about a minute at 16k. Under none of these flights did I notice anything unusual in my perceptions or performance - but then again you're not supposed to. 9B
