N2  - This article provides a comprehensive discussion of research designed to examine the possible existence of consistent visual misperceptions that may occur during off-airport emergency landings. The importance of 2 particular visual experiences was evaluated: (a) the view of the world seen from the unusually steep bank at a low altitude, and (b) the visual distraction of a "windmilling" propeller. The influences of experience and environmental structure were also considered. Studies of these factors were conducted using a visually realistic cockpit mounted within a VisionDome
