Each student seat also has a folding tablet arm. This seating system is similar to the systems being retrofitted into most U.S. Air Force altitude chambers.
- Large viewing window allows excellent view of students and chamber interior from outside the chamber. Operators outside the chamber can easily see if a problem arises inside the chamber.
- An aircraft quality intercom allows clear communication between all the students and instructors.
