Error in flight is a mistake which occurred during flight time that probably caused by the machine or aircraft, and human itself. Error problem caused by pilots commonly happens when they sensed the effect by natural phenomenon as the reaction of human’s body to every movements and manoeuvres in the air. Each person has a different physiology and tolerance to those movements. In short terms, the airspace is not human’s habitat, however, pilot has a unique criterion of physiology and they must consider the impact of these phenomenons through their bodies. In brief, this essay will show one of the error causes; disorientation.
Pilots will get disorientation when they start to trust their senses rather than aircraft’s instruments. We must realise that human’s physiology has delayed responsive to those movements in flight, therefore flight instruments are exist in every aircraft. One of the causes is the visual illusions which occur even in the good visibility and pilots experienced their illusions include Aerial Perspective Illusion, is the condition when pilot tense to change their final approach’s slope, furthermore, it caused by the different widths of the runway (up sloping or down sloping runway and up sloping or down sloping final approach terrain), the brain will translate the wrong information and makes misperception that may result an accident. The second is the Black Hole Approach Illusion which happens during final approach at night, over water area or unlighted terrain to a lighted runway beyond where the horizon is invisible. However, the pilot can be easily oriented themselves correctly using their central vision with the visible horizon. These illusions will also involve approaching runway under condition without lights before runway and with city lights or rising terrain beyond runway. Auto Kinetic Illusion is the third, which pilot will impressed that the stationery objects is moving across his path when they staring at the fixed single point of light in a totally dark and featureless background, then misinterpret that such a light is on collision course with their aircraft. The last is False Visual Reference Illusion which may cause pilot to orient their aircraft in relation to the false horizon when they are flying aver a banked cloud, night flying over featureless terrain with ground lights that are indistinguishable from a dark sky with stars, or night flying over a featureless terrain with a clearly pattern of ground lights without any stars in the sky. All in all, by experiencing sensory illusions on the ground, pilot will have better prepared to recognize those illusions, and then they will take an immediate action when it happens in flight. At least every pilot must well trained in instrument flight exercise. Moreover, they will be confidence and trust the flying instruments, and ignores all conflicting signals that given by their body.
