F22 Pilot injuries

[Sirius]

I remember reading ATS long ago that the pilots had issues from the helmets or something? Anyone got info on this?

Generally I'm surprised the pilots don't just all kill themselves. I would just cut throttle, hit the airbrake and do 180's all the time.

nausea, headaches, fatigue, oxygen issues apparently

That was a long time ago, and was fixed not long after. All aircraft using OBOGS are seeing physiological issues, but so far none have been particularly serious fortunately.
