Q

How Your Eyes Function At Night

Limitations: blindspots and illusions
Ocular anatomy - eye like a camera
Cones in center of visions are responsible for color, work best in high lights
Rods are sensitive at low levels. Rely on it for peripheral vision. High light overwhelms. Off center viewing.

67
Q

A ____________________ Occurs when a Landing is made from overwater, or non-lighted terrain, where the runway lights are the only source of light.

A

Black hole approach
