Nystagmus During Aerobatics
Just learning aerobatics as a newbie PPL. Main objectives, skill building, recovery from unusual attitudes, then maybe an endorsement.
I'm doing it in a Decathlon.
Only one problem, wingovers, Chandelles etc. are OK, but twice now during aileron rolls, I've had Nystygamus which is a rapid flicking of eyes left right etc as they try and track a spot that your inner ear is telling your brain that you are yawing.
First time, I moved my head (to look at my harness - negative G - coriolis illusion)). Last time I'm not sure if I moved my head or whether it was the red wine the night before and accompanying dehydration, or antibiotics I was taking for a cold.
Its a very disconcerting illusion that takes at least 30 seconds to clear and recurs if I start any pitching manouvres.
Question is, has this happened to any of you? What did you do about it?
