Pilots should be made aware of the possibility and magnitude of the G-excess effect. Training protocols should include the caveat that head pitches can cause erroneous sensations of under- or overbanking of their aircraft. Special attention must be paid at low altitude to avoid disaster. Specifically, an upward head pitch combined with a head yaw into a turn, as is common in formation flying, can result in a sensation of underbank and a pitch-up of the aircraft. Intended corrective action actually overbanks thw aircraft with a pitch down, causing loss of altitude. Downward head pitches during turning, as is common during bombing or strafing runs, can cause a sensation of overbanking. Intended corrective action actually underbanks the aircraft, causing altitude gain that could lead to midair collision when in formation flight.
