Pilot Physiological Factors

The pilot is lazy and rushes to get done quickly. The pilot hurries to get done in order to rest. Fatigue may not be apparent to a pilot until serious errors are made (an impaired pilot is a dangerous pilot).

All traffic or terrain features appear to be farther away than their actual distance. Haze causes the eyes to focus at infinity. The eyes tend to overwork in haze and do not detect relative movement easily.

concentrate on relative movement detected in the peripheral vision area. systematically focus on different segments of the sky for short intervals. continuously scan the sky from right to left.
