In order to keep pace with the current operating environment, the development of more sophisticated aircraft, and improvements in weapons systems, Army crewmembers must be capable of operating these systems for extended periods of time, in austere environments, and under adverse conditions. The associated physiological impacts of operating under such conditions could impact aircrew performance and jeopardize mission accomplishment unless crewmembers are trained to recognize and understand these aeromedical factors. Spatial disorientation is the physiologic factor that contributes most often to aircraft mishaps. TC 3-04.93 updates previous doctrine and utilizes lessons learned from recent military conflicts and contingency operations in order to incorporate the most relevant training methods related to spatial disorientation (SD).
