A
If a pilot experiences spatial disorientation during flight in a restricted visibility condition, the best way to overcome the effect is to A rely upon the aircraft instrument indications. B concentrate on yaw, pitch, and roll sensations. C consciously slow the breathing rate until symptoms clear and then resume normal breathing rate.
