But you can look where you're going in both cases: with your head level with
the horizon, and with your head level with the aircraft.
Sometimes I do keep my head level with the horizon in a turn to assess
bank angle peripherally while I clear ahead of the plane (this would
normally be when I am in a medium turn and are clearing in front of
the A pillar in a C172). I'm not sure if this is right or wrong, I
just do it.
