Yep, that's very true! Although instruments are not as important if you have outside visual. It's called VFR which is visual flight rules. This means your flying the plane with reference to outside and not the instruments (although you do check them from time to time). It would suck to get into spins or spiral dives on an IFR flight although you do learn to recognize them from the instruments. The big factor here which comes from what your saying is the human factors of being able to handle those forces and disorientation that your body is experiencing. But yes, very good point thank you!
