Using John Leaches' research at the University of Lancaster, UK, and the research conducted by Lawrence Gonzales as a basis, this module addresses the “will to live”, physiological and psychological reactions to stress, and environmental stressors such as pain, cold, thirst, hunger and fatigue. The session emphasizes how to maintain a Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) and a 98.6 degree body core temperature.   10:15 am Saturday | 11:30 am Sunday Survival Workshop: Egress/ Ditching Basics Emergency Response International (ERI) South Foyer (A) This one hour seminar is a prerequisite for the three (3) hour In Pool Egress Training.

This session explores and differentiates between fact and fiction as related to survival training and practical skills. Much of what we see comes from outdoor camping publications and older military manuals where quotes and specific techniques have been handed down and used verbatim by writers for decades. This process creates many myths and misconceptions about survival, and often conveys a very misleading picture about true survival situations. The emphasis in the class puts these facts and related information into an aviation context for pilots and passengers.
