Air Crash Investigators Chapter 43

"Coriolis hallucination, the lymph in the semicircular canals of the human ear reaches equilibrium after a long period of acceleration, causing the human brain to have the illusion of 'no acceleration'. Once affected by external forces at this time, the state of the lymph changes, which may cause Coriolis hallucination." Patrick Zhuo said, "In order to avoid the cyclone, the two pilots chose to descend. At this time, they were in a process of accelerated descent. The sudden strong crosswind caused them to suffer a violent impact and their bodies shook..."

He looked at all the investigators. "Hence, the Coriolis hallucination."

Old Joseph went on to say: "The evidence is very clear. First, judging from the flight data chart, the driving process of American Airlines 4012 fully meets the conditions for the Coriolis hallucination. Second, the co-pilot Tim said in the recording that he felt dizzy. This is also one of the manifestations of the Coriolis hallucination. In addition..." Old Joseph looked at Alex Su, and Alex Su immediately understood and retrieved the plane's final flight data and projected it on the big screen.

Old Joseph: "This plane was almost at maximum acceleration and rushed into the sea. The most direct manifestation of the Coriolis illusion is that the pilot will feel that he is rotating or accelerating on a completely different axis. In order to change this state, they will fly the plane incorrectly, causing the plane to accelerate faster."

Old Joseph watched the last paragraph on the screen quietly.
