terrain, runway width or length; the in-flight effects of physiological factors,
such as stress, illness, fatigue, and medication; hypoxia; effects of alcohol
and hangover; the bends; false horizons; the Giant Hand effect; spatial misorientation
and spatial disorientation and their different causes.
Hosted by Bob Hoover, premier aerobatic demonstration pilot, the program includes segments of his airshow in the Shrike Aero Commander.
