No, learning to fly IFR means _ignoring_ those conditioned responses, and
flying exclusively based on what the instruments say.
Furthermore, the conditioned responses vary by aircraft; learning one is
not
terribly useful for another. And even the more general motion cues are
unreliable.
Ultimately, sensation is almost useless for flying. The real information
comes from visual cues (under VFR) and/or instruments (under IFR). If you
have neither of this, you're headed towards an appointment with destiny,
no
matter how much practice you have with physical sensations.
Conversely, you _can_ fly without the sensations, as long as you have
visual
cues and/or instruments.
And, if you have sensations _and_ visual cues _and_ instruments, the ones
to
trust first are the instruments, followed by visual cues. The sensations
are
not trustworthy, except to help you make coordinated turns or in a few
other
very isolated circumstances.
People fly safely and successfully every day just by looking at those
gauges.
Nobody flies for more than a few minutes just by depending on sensations.
What a clueless troll!!!!!!
