spatial disorientation,
A lack of orientation with regard to the position, attitude, or movement of the aircraft in space is defined as
slowing the breathing rate, breathing into a paper bag, or talking aloud.
A pilot experiencing the effects of hyperventilation should be able to restore the proper carbon dioxide level in the body by
sufficient oxygen may not reach the cells in the body.
A pilot making a blood donation in order to help a sick associate should be aware that for several weeks
slowing the breathing rate, breathing into a bag, or talking aloud.
A pilot should be able to overcome the symptoms or avoid future occurrences of hyperventilation by
spatial disorientation,
A state of temporary confusion resulting from misleading information being sent to the brain by various sensory organs is defined as
Not so fast, think first.
What antidotal phrase can help reverse the hazardous attitude of impulsivity?
All traffic or terrain features appear to be farther away than their actual distance.
What effect does haze have on the ability to see traffic or terrain features during flight?
Open air vents or windows.
What is a correct response if an exhaust leak were to be detected while in flight?
Scud running.
What is it often called when a pilot pushes his or her capabilities and the aircraft's limits by trying to maintain visual contact with the terrain in low visibility and ceiling?
Checklists
What is one of the neglected items when a pilot relies on short and long term memory for repetitive tasks?
Follow the rules.
What is the antidote when a pilot has a hazardous attitude, such as "Antiauthority"?
Not so fast, think first.
What is the antidote when a pilot has a hazardous attitude, such as "Impulsivity"?
Taking chances is foolish.
What is the antidote when a pilot has a hazardous attitude, such as "Macho"?
I am not helpless.
What is the antidote when a pilot has a hazardous attitude, such as "Resignation"?
It could happen to me.
What is the antidote when a pilot has the hazardous attitude of "Invulnerability"?
Scan slowly to permit off-center viewing.
What is the most effective way to use the eyes during night flight?
Human error
What is the one common factor which affects most preventable accidents?
Continual flight into instrument conditions
What often leads to spatial disorientation or collision with ground/obstacles when flying under Visual Flight Rules (VFR)?
Avoid bright white lights at least 30 minutes before the flight.
What preparation should a pilot make to adapt the eyes for night flying?
hyperventilation
When a stressful situation is encountered in flight, an abnormal increase in the volume of air breathed in and out can cause a condition known as
Tingling sensations.
Which is a common symptom of hyperventilation?
Hypertoxic.
Which is not a type of hypoxia?
Promptly descend to a lower altitude.
Which of the following is a correct response to counteract the feelings of hypoxia in flight?
A state of oxygen deficiency in the body
Which statement best defines hypoxia?
Systematically focus on different segments of the sky for short intervals.
Which technique should a pilot use to scan for traffic to the right and left during straight-and-level flight?
Emotional tension, anxiety, or fear.
Which would most likely result in hyperventilation?
The pilot.
Who is responsible for determining whether a pilot is fit to fly for a particular flight, even though he or she holds a current medical certificate?
Antiauthority, impulsivity, macho, resignation, and invulnerability
Hazardous attitudes occur to every pilot to some degree at some time. What are some of these hazardous attitudes?
rely upon the aircraft instrument indications.
If a pilot experiences spatial disorientation during flight in a restricted visibility condition, the best way to overcome the effect is to
Recognizing hazardous thoughts.
In the aeronautical decision making (ADM) process, what is the first step in neutralizing a hazardous attitude?
loss of muscular power
Large accumulations of carbon monoxide in the human body result in
recognize and mitigate hazards.
One purpose of crew resource management (CRM) is to give crews tools to
hyperventilation.
Rapid or extra deep breathing while using oxygen can cause a condition known as
Situational awareness, problem recognition, and good judgment.
Risk management, as part of the aeronautical decision making (ADM) process, relies on which features to reduce the risks associated with each flight?
altitude increases.
Susceptibility to carbon monoxide poisoning increases as
dizziness, blurred vision, and loss of muscle power
Effects of carbon monoxide poisoning include
body signals are used to interpret flight attitude.
Pilots are more subject to spatial disorientation if
visual cues are taken away, as they are in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC).
Pilots are more subject to spatial disorientation if
management of external pressures.
The most important key to risk management is
look to the side of the object and scan slowly.
The best method to use when looking for other traffic at night is to
having faith in the instruments rather than taking a chance on the sensory organs.
The danger of spatial disorientation during flight in poor visual conditions may be reduced by
lower approach with the risk of striking objects along the approach path or landing short
The illusion associated with landing on a narrower than usual runway may result in the pilot flying a
