ClintonB Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I have never been sick from aeros as a passenger, nor from manoeuvres flying an aircraft. But last week I tried vr with my daughter. I handled the big rotating swing, the roller coaster ride. But I sat on a flat sled, which rocked around and with googles on flying around a city above the skyscrapers on a track that was mapped out with a track, I lost my breakfast. some of the stuff I have read about ww2 aircraft, their manoeuvres and lack of training along with poor conditions, makes me appreciate what was done by our forebears. Holding it together under fire, sick from living conditions and away from home. Life was a lot tougher then than now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out they were the best of their nation’s elite, with vastly more comprehensive training than British and Commonwealth pilots.

The effect of discomfort on human efficiency is now well understood. It’s easy for us to sit back in our safe, warm houses with a full belly and pass judgement on the performance of others in wartime situations. If I had suffered weeks of poor diet, dysintery, battle trauma and fear, I might easily commit a war crime. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
