Spatial dis-orientation in regards to where you are to other objects is one thing but the aircraft attitude? How's that possible when your attitude indicator tells you exactly what's going on unless it's not functioning correctly?

Do you remember the first time you trained under a hood?

I never trained under a hood. I only have about 25 hours on a Piper Archer 2 flying VFR only!

At least for me I can look at the 6 pack and get an idea of what’s going on even if I flew into clouds. I would just hope I could get above, below, or out of them.

Maintaining a heading and keeping the wings level shouldn’t be that difficult as long as the instruments are operating correctly.
