Head orientation in turns--how is it taught for aviation?
Like many A/C, my single tin-can has this aerodynamic thing where if
you really lean into the bank, it prevents her from wanting to return to wings level. Normally not a problem, but I now suffer from disorientosis. It stems from 26 yrs on MSFS since v 1.0 in 1983, where like even in versions today, the airplane will stay at any bank angle once set. See, I coincidentally make only $647/month like O/P, and can't afford what they get for joysticks even off eBay. I use keypad control. Reality in simming is for wusses; just do what the sim programmer expects. It got really bad when I was earning my IFR ticket, because I had to use rudder under the hood, to let the thing slew back toward that displaced,vertical needle thingy on an ILS. On my Baron in MSFS over many years, it became ingrained to just use asymmetric thrust to do that, due to high rudder forces. To maintain GS, I also just used pitch in my Baron, cause you can't twiddle thrust and do too many things at once, like also constantly reminding self to keep body erect despite the efficacy of leaning. It's also just so unintuitive to bank to fly a straight course, especially when you can't feel a bank, and they persistently teach you to ignore senses anyway, and you're like in solid cloud when it's 200-1/2 for real. Disorientosis really set in when I got glider time, and that bird had this silly piece of yarn taped to the windscreen. You step on the ball, but opposite the yarn. But nobody even an ATP can remember that in solid cloud near ILS minimums. I did overshoot a rwy once in my actual tin can post an ILS in actual to mins, using high power to make rudder more effective and pitch for GS, and thence FAA wanted this 809 ride, whatever. The FAA guy was so impressed with my technique, crossed needles down to the MM, he asked me if I had disorientosis. Naw, I lied, but do you fly MSFS? He said every day; real neat sim. Actual flyin' just don't get no better than that. F-- |
