The modification allows the pilot to safely operate the ER-2 by reducing effective cockpit altitude from 29,000 feet to 15,000 feet altitude when operating at 65,000 feet. Changing the altitude in the cockpit significantly reduces the possibility of decompression sickness.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?w=1280\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"Pilot walking in flight suit waving, outside during the day, people in the background.\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=1024,682 1024w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=400,267 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/afrc2022-0042-19_medium-1.jpg?resize=1200,800 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">NASA pilot Greg “Coach” Nelson prepared for flight on the ER-2 by air crew life support at Armstrong Flight Research Center on April 7, 2022.<\/div><div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA\/Carla Thomas<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Another important modification to the ER-2 utilizes the Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) technology. The installation of the ADS-B system makes flying the ER-2 safer by allowing the pilot increased traffic situational awareness. The ADS-B system also brings the ER-2 in compliance with the Federal Aviation Agency and the International Civil Aviation Organization to operate in the national and international airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a series of check flights on Apr. 7, the ER-2 will resume flying missions for NASA\u2019s Earth Science Division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASA Armstrong operates two ER-2 aircraft to collect information about Earth resources, celestial observations, atmospheric chemistry and dynamics, and oceanic processes. The aircraft fly as high as 70,000 feet. and are also used for electronic sensor research and development, satellite calibration, and satellite data validation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on
