Abstract

Тhe Article is devoted to one of the causes of accidents in air transport, of spatial disorientation. The comparative analysis of the incidence of spatial disorientation of aircrew of the United States, NATO countries, which were the cause of aviation accidents. This modern understanding of psycho-physiological training in spatial disorientation. It justifies the need for psycho-physiological training of flight crews in order to reduce the rates of accidents associated with violations of spatial orientation. Described specialized modern spatial disorientation simulators used for training pilots in the air forces of NATO countries and the USA, and prospects of development of Russian accounting solutions.
