Nov 28, 2022 at 12:41 | comment | added | U_flow | But again, bear in mind, that this is military training. Part of the (at least perceived) job description is to look tough. Therefore 1% of the pilots admitted to have aborted the flight training because of this. Additionally, I misquoted. The numbers above are given for the 10th training flight. I updated the text above. | |
Nov 28, 2022 at 10:27 | comment | added | U_flow | @yshavit I located the exact source, I updated my answer with the source from which I pulled the numbers. It furthermore states: "training is discontinued because of motion sickness in 5 % of student navigators [...] and in approximately 1 % of student pilots [...]. In one smaller sample of student pilots, 6.7 % ceased training because of motion sickness [...]. " Please note that this paper is from 1970 | |

Nov 27, 2022 at 4:34 | comment | added | yshavit | Are there statistics as to how many USAF pilots who have a first training flight also have a 20th? (I'm wondering if there may also be some survivorship bias in that stat. But I have no idea what if any weed-out process the training has.) | |
