    Hello johnpe1,
    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. My wife has this problem and uses the other method. I just showed her this presentation and printed it out for her, for future reference.
    Gratitude,
    O.A.

      I have been lucky -- only one instance of motion
      sickness in 66 years (in the back of a Mooney
      Super 21 flying over some mountains). . but my
      wife may need this technique, also, sometimes.

      the feeling of nausea and acute discomfort
      is awful.

      Good Luck!!! -- j

    Many years ago I was an aerobatic pilot. Never bothered me a bit. Then, one day, I had a bout of what this story is about. I almost figured it out on my own (the particles in the chamber moving) because I noticed I felt it only with a turn of the head in one axis. Saw the doc and he explained it and a week later it was all gone. It's cool to see this doc address it and get the story out.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Vertigo to me is not following the desire to jump.
    See I have climbed mountains and yes I look down 2000 feet of vertical cliff and who wouldn't want to fly.
    I don't get the dizzy at a place but we are all individuals.
    Wish I had a photo of the last pitch of ElCap Nose, you have to traverse this geologic wave of years ago where you do look down 3k ft as you pick up your last piece and huge the tree. 27 hrs for the fun of it.

    Aloha

      Resisting the urge to delete, I wrote it, so,I'll leave it.
      I've probably had it but wasn't aware of it because I can get lost on any trail, I'm just cruising along then all of a sudden I'm trying to figure out where I am.
      Of course I could be a pathetic navigator.

      Have fun!
