Summary
240 Max talks with Dr. Victor Vogel about Illusions that kill pilots: “The Leans,” graveyard spiral, and Coriolis illusion. They create powerful sensations that pilots must ignore and instead rely on their instruments. He also talks about a mid-air collision at North Las Vegas Airport. A Piper JetProp flying left traffic to 30L overshot the runway and hit a plane landing on 30R.
