occur due to acceleration forces overpowering gravity. [Figure 17-6] These situations include uncoordinated turns, climbing turns, and turbulence. Demonstration of Spatial Disorientation There are a number of controlled aircraft maneuvers a pilot can perform to experiment with spatial disorientation ... While each maneuver normally creates a specific illusion, any false sensation is an effective demonstration of disorientation. Thus, even if there is no sensation during any of these maneuvers, the absence of sensation is still an effective demonstration because…
