Oregon Aero Miscellaneous High-G® Safety Seat Discussed in SoTech "Tougher Choppers" Article    The October 2004 issue of Special Operations Technology (SoTech) magazine features an interesting article on the development of "survivability systems" for helicopter crews and passengers. The article states that the primary cause of death in helicopter crashes has shifted from post-crash fires during the Vietnam era to contact injuries today. Spinal column injuries have been greatly reduced thanks to the development of crashworthy seats such as the Oregon Aero® High-G® Seat.    The SoTech article states, "Over a 13-year development period, [Oregon Aero] developed theOregon Aero® High-G® Seat and even customized it to meet the special needs of the Sikorsky MH-53 flight engineer seat." Oregon Aero CEO Mike Dennis is quoted saying, "Comfort and safety are synonymous." Oregon Aero’s research shows that a comfortable seat is also a safe seat. The article also mentions Oregon Aero’s complete military headset upgrades that eliminate pain, reduce noise, and improve impact protection.    For more information on the Oregon Aero® High-G® Seat, please visit Custom Seat Design and Manufacturing.
