spatial disorientationA state of confusion concerning the subject's true position in space in relation to the surface of the earth. A disoriented pilot is thus uncertain or unaware of his position or the attitude of his aircraft. In flight, the problem of disorientation is much greater than it is on the ground, as the pilot lacks physical contact with the ground to orient himself. In the air, there are other accelerations, which add to sensory confusion. This is mainly because of the lack of visual clues. This is a very common situation at night, in clouds, and in poor visibility conditions, especially when the pilot is not relying totally on instruments.spatial disorientation
spatial disorientationIn aerospace medicine, a term used to describe a variety of incidents occurring in flight, when the pilot fails to sense correctly the position, motion, or attitude of the aircraft or himself or herself within the coordinate system provided by the surface of the earth and gravitation.See also: disorientationAcronymsSeeslowdown |
