A Boeing C-17 Globemaster III has been transformed into a flying hospital so doctors can stabilize, monitor and give soldiers high-level care, according to an article on the Wired website.
The airborne facility can accommodate dozens of patients in stacked, bunk-bed-like pallets.
If an unstable patient needs to avoid turbulence, the medical teams use noise-canceling headsets to discuss route adjustments with the aircrew. They can also request an altitude change to alter cabin pressure if air trapped inside a patient’s body might expand and damage tissue, the article said.
Eighty-four strip heaters warm the floor panels from below, helping the flight crew crank the cabin temperature as high as 90 degrees.
