Question 1

1209
While in IMC, a pilot often interprets acceleration or deceleration forces as a sensation of

Answer 1

climbing or descending.

Question 2

1844
Abrupt head movement during a prolonged constant rate turn in IMC or simulated instrument conditions can cause

Answer 2

Coriolis illusion.

Question 3

1845
Street lights, stars, sloping cloud formations, or an obscured horizon may lead to

Answer 3

false horizon.

Question 4

1846
An abrupt transition from a climb to straight-and-level flight can create the illusion of

The sensations which lead to spatial disorientation during instrument flight conditions

Answer 6

must be suppressed and complete reliance placed on the indications of the flight instruments.

Answer 7

Read and interpret the flight instrument, and act accordingly.

Question 8

1853
