This is often the result of the aircraft picking up excessive airspeed as a result of pilot disorientation in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), followed by an abrupt pitch-up after exiting the bottom of the cloud. local time, roughly three hours into the flight.

From flight planning, I knew that we would experience rain, instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), and darkness. Mitigating factors included no risk of convection (thunderstorms) or icing at our cruise altitude of 5,000 feet and VFR conditions expected to prevail at Saratoga Springs for our landing.

” This is especially common when flying in IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) —like clouds or fog—when you can’t see outside. Cross-check your instruments to stay on a stable path. The mismatch between what you see (or don’t see) and what you feel can make you become disoriented. Why is this a big deal?
