Head orientation in turns--how is it taught for aviation?

wrote: 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. I can't imagine a pilot would crane his head left or right in order to stay oriented with the horizon. The natural thing to do is have your spine straight up and down, perpendicular to your seat.
