Head orientation in turns--how is it taught for aviation?

2) To prevent falling off this powerful machine, many newbies have found that keeping their head vertical to the road prevents them from getting too dizzy and falling off. Professional racers do exactly the same thing, and they are not newbies. |

Hey, I tried duplicating flight with my motorcycle, but I ended up crashing into the retaining wall at the end of the runway. I plan to sue you. On what basis? |

Head orientation in turns--how is it taught for aviation?

A couple of things to ponder. If (contray to what real life pilots and CFIs have said here) pilots were taught to generally lean/tilt their heads to keep it normal to the horizon, wouldn't a fine simulator such as MSFS ("as real as it gets") be designed to keep the horizon always horizonal across your monitor and have the cockpit artwork rotate/tilt (since that would present the same sight picture to a sim-pilot as a real pilot would encounter)? No. Sim pilots can turn their heads, too. Have you ever felt the need to lean/tilt your head during coordinated turns in a commercial airliner? If you forced yourself to lean in such a situation you chances are you'd feel much more disorientated. I'm rarely aware of turns in an airliner, as I'm not flying the plane and don't have to worry about where it is going. |

As moving just a little off topic, do you have any doubt that
Anthony's resume would show a large number of short term employments? He'd present as an intellegent candidate, then demonstrate soon enough an inability or unwillingness to take instructions.

oups.com... As moving just a little off topic, do you have any doubt that Anthony's resume would show a large number of short term employments? He'd present as an intellegent candidate, then demonstrate soon enough an inability or unwillingness to take instructions. I doubt he would make it through many interviews. His complete lack of social skills would turn up quickly. Looking at his website shows he has the technical knowledge to use html, but nothing more. My guess is he was hired during the dot-com era as a web programmer, but never really produced anything. He probably was hired for some huge project at an exorbitant salary, and dumped either when they realized he couldn't really produce anything, or when the whole dot-com era crashed. That would also explain his references to having 'been there - done that' and stories about going broke. His blog shows he has no concept of cash flow management. I suspect he spent all his money like a drunken sailor, and is still suffering the consequences. |

And this comment comes from a loser who can't find or hold a job in two of
the most industrialized countries in the world? "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... Erik writes: Yep. I'll be suspect number one if I ever fly into france and you happen to disappear. Are you married? Have a girlfriend? Ever apply for a job that requires interaction with others, especially in close proximity or alone? |
