What are symptoms of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning in the cockpit?

Answer

Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea, and confusion — often confused with hypoxia. CO is odorless and colorless. If suspected: turn off heat, open fresh air, use supplemental O2 if available, and land as soon as possible.
