Literature Review: Vestibular Illusions in Combat Flight: Implications and Management
Vestibular illusion is a common problem in combat aviation, which can cause spatial disorientation (SD) and potentially result in fatal accidents. This article discusses several types of SD, such as type I, type II, and type III, along with their characteristics and implications. Vestibular illus...

| description | Vestibular illusion is a common problem in combat aviation, which can cause spatial
disorientation (SD) and potentially result in fatal accidents. This article discusses
several types of SD, such as type I, type II, and type III, along with their characteristics
and implications. Vestibular illusions, such as somatogravic illusion, somatogyral
illusion, leans, Coriolis illusion, and G-excess illusion, are also presented as factors
that can influence pilot decisions during flight. It is important for military aviators to
understand and recognise these vestibular illusions to maintain spatial orientation and
prevent accidents. Effective management of vestibular illusions, including the Coriolis
illusion, involves training, awareness and mitigation strategies, such as the use of
technological simulations like virtual reality. This training helps aviators recognize and
overcome vestibular illusions, thereby improving overall flight safety. |
