Human Factors in aviation accidents are attributed to unsafe acts that are either Errors or Violations. Errors could be decision/ skill-based/ perceptual. Spatial Disorientation (SD) falls under perceptual error.
SD leading to perceptual errors is actually NOT an error. Its a physiological state that can’t be controlled by the individual. A pilot is either disoriented or not. Not every instance of SD leads to perceptual error. (esp if SD is recognised).
