Pitching down from a climb feels like you’re tumbling backwards
Coriolis Illusion
Constant turn for too long feels like straight and level
Elevator Illusion
Updraft makes pilot think they need to pitch nose down
Leans Illusion
entering bank too slowly don’t know you’re in a bank
Graveyard Spiral and Spin
Pilot doesn’t know he’s banked pitches up for lost altitude tightens spiral, spin fluid doesn’t realize it’s straight and re enters spin
