Data from the US Army Health Risk Appraisal Program were used to compare health and fitness levels in flight and nonflight personnel. Survey data collected from an aviation brigade, consisting of 428 aircrew and 899 support personnel, were compared with US Army summary statistics. Flight personnel scored better on evaluation of hypertension, stress, weight standards, and seatbelt use. However, the prevalence of smokeless tobacco use, heavy alcohol consumption, and driving after drinking or riding with someone who consumed alcohol was significantly higher in flight personnel. This study suggests that although Army aircrew have better lifestyle habits overall, high-risk behaviors have been identified that warrant further evaluation.
