Title:
Vestibular Illusions and Overreliance on Automation
Topic:
We Will Discuss Sensory Illusions and Also Occasions When Our Automation Does Not Perform as Expected.
Speaker(s):
Paul Golick, Professional CFI
Brief Description:
Our senses usually help us maintain situational and spacial awareness but, when flying, some sensory inputs may mislead. We will review several varieties of illusions and mis-perceptions. A pilot who recognizes an illusion can choose more reliable information.
Technology and automation have changed the way pilots interact with their aircraft. Automation can reduce a pilot's workload but can also challenge a pilot's abilities. When the pilot's role changes from being the sole mover of activities to being a monitor much of the time, the opportunities for loss of situational awareness increase and will be discussed.
Pizza will be available after 6PM for those attendees who arrive early.
