Just wondering how common are somatogravic illusions?
Somatogravic illusion is associated with high accelerations or deceleration in the longitudinal axis and was first manifested in the early days of jet aviation. The accident photos clearly show the aircraft had little or no speed at impact, so highly unlikely to be relevant.
