A pilot experiencing the effects of hyperventilation should be able to restore the proper carbon dioxide level in his/her body by
  1. Talking out loud, breathe into a bag, or slow your breathing
  2. Breathe rapidly to increase oxygen to the lungs
  3. Breathe deeply
  4. Use the aircraft’s portable oxygen system
Explanation
Correct answer: A. Talk out loud or breathe into a bag, or slow your breathing. Remember that to increase carbon dioxide, you need to increase your carbon intake as you have too much oxygen in your lungs. The bag is the best method, but the others will work in a pinch. Whatever you do, do not increase the oxygen into your system for that is what is causing the problem.
