    I run them every day. Every one of our systems goes through a set of
    Environmental Screening and Vibration tests. We just qualified a unit
    recently that underwent 2 weeks (nonstop) of
    temperature/vibration/altitude testing with a profile that varies each
    of the parameters to extremes...all while operational! You should see
    the explosive decompression tests!
