Q

Abort Procedure - Natural Disaster - Mechanical failure

A

Ascend to 60FSW AT 30 FPM, All on O2, Follow AIR/O2 Table for max depth breathing O2 continuously, Breath 02 for the sum of deeper deco stops prior to deco from that depth, No more time bring chamber to surface @ 10FPM on 100 O2. NO symptoms follow TT6 asap.
