Am sure SI exists and occurs with pilots.
Question is why/how do some crews sort it (viz example in B757 above) but others don't?
I've had disorientation on several occasions when airborne but lived to tell the tale,
The answer is thorough crew training and procedures - plenty of a/c do GAs in potentially disorienting situations but do not come to grief.
Ref this being "common place " in GA a/c accidents - can you supply statistics?
