Spatial Disorientation Impact on the Precise Approach in Simulated Flight

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

BACKGROUND: The risks posed by fl ight illusions impacting pilot spatial orientation have been determined as a safety concern from numerous past aviation accident investigations. Early demonstration of the adverse eff ects of fl ight illusions on spatial orientation would be desirable for all pilots, especially at the early training stages to deeply embed good practice for onset detection, fl ight correction, and response mitigation. METHOD: Simulated fl ights on a disorientation demonstrator were performed by 19 pilots for 3 conditions: no illusion, somatogyral, and Coriolis illusion. An objective approach for assessing pilot performance degradation due to fl ight illusions can be done by using a defi ned fl ight profi le: instrument landing system (ILS) fl ight trajectory during fi nal instrument approach. Deviations to the standard ILS profi le were recorded to measure and evaluate the infl uence of the demonstrated fl ight illusion on pilot performance. RESULTS: The results show the expectation that the smallest deviations from the ideal trajectory are caused by pilot tracking error (no illusion), and the greatest deviations are caused by the Coriolis illusion. Results demonstrated a statistically signifi - cant eff ect of illusions on performance. According to statements from pilots, training for fl ight illusion response is essential to complement training in aircraft regulations and aerodynamics. DISCUSSION: Measuring the infl uence of vestibular illusions on fl ight profi le with a simulator allows assessment of individual diff erences and improvement of pilot performance under the conditions of no illusion, the somatogyral illusion, and the
