You will learn how the eye processes light, colour, and motion; how blind spots and visual defects can affect situational awareness; and the importance of proper correction for eyesight issues in aviation. </p><p>We will also dive into the anatomy of the ear and the vestibular system, uncovering illusions like “The Leans” and “Somatogravic” effects that can deceive even experienced pilots. Finally, you’ll understand how motion sickness develops, its symptoms, and practical strategies to maintain peak performance in the cockpit.</p>

Flying challenges not just machines, but the human body itself. In this first part of Human Performance & Limitations, we explore how pilots adapt to the invisible but powerful environment they operate in.
