Default Beating Nausea

Any recommendations/thoughts?
Hi
I think there is no need to fly more than 40 minutes, after that, even
if you don't feel nauseous, there is little luck that you could learn
anything.
I guess the good length of a flight is around those 35-40 minutes,
whatever accelerations you could experience. What you will improve is
the amount of gs you can bear in that period of time considering very
high level pilots rarely fly more than 30 minutes, even if it's often a
problem of *fuel* endurance !
As told by other contributors, maybe a different plane with a clearer
front view could help focusing on the horizon instead of focusing on
your feelings.
And also, as usual, drink water, eat enough, and train your abdominal
muscles.
