Additional Practice Questions: Human Factors (Part 3): DGCA Air Regulations questions
The third practice set centres on the senses: acceleration, the eyes at night, the ear, and the illusions that follow when what you see and what you feel disagree.
Among its 30 questions, positive g and how to raise your tolerance to it stand out, with dark adaptation, autokinesis, flicker vertigo and night approaches. A few cover pressure breathing, decompression sickness and alcohol. DGCA exam sessions have featured 3 of them.
Over dark, featureless ground at night you feel higher than you are, so you fly a shallower approach than you should and risk landing short. To see a dim object at night, look slightly to one side of it, because the fovea, at the centre of the retina, holds only cones.
