    yes you would hope that to be true , but back in 1942 i think not , looking at some of the kit used , im sure it was,nt so , after diving some years to 70m on air oc , and using nitrox / o2 on deco . then moving to ccr and a 10/50 dill , the wob on my old turd is nothing like sucking...

    DISCUSSION: We found no general tendency to CO2 retention during decompression. It is plausible that breaching oxygen exposure limits during resting decompression is less hazardous than equivalent breaches when exercising at deep depths. Mitchell SJ, Mesley P, Hannam JA. End tidal CO2 in...

    if your not moving gas round the loop , id also think that the o2 in the head / round the cells is not getting much use , cell,s would read say 1.3 , but id say what s in the one bag/lung would be less . my thinking is if the c02 had not got her lack of o2 may well be up on the list , as well...

    i think the DSV was the right way up , and only the lung to hose part,s are keyed , not seen the unit so im just talking bollox , but having the DSV up side down im sure some from the team of 3 dives would have spotted that , i dont know , whats keyed and whats not ,

    once she put the lungs on the wrong side , it looks to me she just went dot to dot , as that the only way it would all fit , dsv was the right way , just bad news for her that the inhale flipper valve sits in the hose , so ended up butting both valves togeather on the right side blocking...
