Spatial disorientation
Individuals inability to determine their position, attitude, & motion relative to the surface of the earth or other significant objects
Types of spatial disorientation
Type I: unrecognized
Type II: recognized
Type III: incapacitating
Types of hypoxia
Hypoxia, hypemic, stagnant, histotoxic
Hypemic
Anemic, reduction of oxygen carrying capacity of blood
Histotoxic
Interference of O2 absorption. Commonly caused by alcohol, narcotics, and certain poisons (cyanide)
Somatogravic illusions
Caused by changes in linear acceleration & gravity stimulate otolith organs
Types of somatogravic illusions
Oculogravic illusions, elevator illusions
Somatogravic illusions
Caused when angular accelerations and deceleration stimulate semicircular canals
Types of somatogyral illusions
Leans, graveyard spin, coriolis illusions
Oculogravic illusions
Occurs when an aircraft is accelerated or decelerates in a forward direction
Elevator illusion
When you look down and think the nose is rising
Oculoagravic illusion
When aircraft is moving downwards, and you are looking up
