I recall the Aero Peru B757 that took off with tape over the static ports, out over open ocean at night. Spatial Disorientation. News reports state N102PT was ascending to 10000, levelled off at 3000 reporting loss of Attitude Indicator. Aircraft flew a distance of 9 miles from the airport, ATC reported a rapid decent. Aircraft burned for some time after the accident.
