Attention:
- Research a Carbon monoxide case studies
- Discuss how the initial conditions developed into an incident/accident/mishap
- Relate similar personal experience of the same type of incident/accident/mishap
Motivator:
- Carbon Monoxide, chemically abbreviated as "CO," is one of the most common and toxic of substances in the aviation environment
- Due to its properties as a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, it can quietly build, resulting in deadly consequences
- It is therefore critical that pilots are able to recognize carbon monoxide poisoning
- If discovered, pilots must apply immediate action to treat those symptoms before they get worse
- Despite carbon monoxide as a persistent threat in aviation, there are steps pilot's can take to detect and prevent its presence
