Sporty’s Offers Improved Portable SkyOx
The jury is in. Using O2 when you should makes flying safer, and Sky Ox has yet another affordable way to get it in the cockpit.
February 2009
Sporty’s Pilot Shop, the exclusive distributor for SkyOx portable oxygen systems, is offering a new line of equipment that features an improved regulator design. The new Click-a-Breath regulator makes selecting the correct flow rate for your flight condition simple and positive because the control dial clicks firmly into the desired detent.
It’s important to select the proper oxygen flow rate for your altitude to ensure safety, but it’s also important to avoid wasting oxygen with too high a flow. A newly designed chart helps pilots quickly determine how to set the Click-a-Breath for their situation. The new regulator is all-metal making it more durable, and it can now be entirely removed from the bottle for refilling without use of tools.
Sporty’s offers SkyOx systems for two- or four-person use. Each system includes the tank, regulator, masks, cannulas, flow indicators, hoses and fittings, and comes with a padded carrying case. The systems are sold either empty or full of oxygen. They can be refilled at any FBO that offers oxygen service. For more information, see sportys.com/oxygen.
