Just like you did on my information, I'll take a pass.
Thanks though.

I was going for the abridgement...people didn't want the hour explanation, So i went for the 30 second one...
Some people might want to learn some alternative information. So I put it out there. It makes no difference to me what people choose to do with it.
Sad that most have such short attention spans that real learning cannot take place.
That is by design.

Excerpt:

Per visual flight rules, Zobayan had to fly below the clouds, with his eyes on the road beneath him. But at some point, aviation experts say, he likely felt he no longer could. Either he felt his gap narrowing between ground and clouds, or sensed the fog around him thickening. So he tried to escape.

In an interview with investigators, an air traffic controller speculated that perhaps Zobayan spotted a break in the clouds. If not, he tried to climb through them. As he did, he either flew blindly into them; or he attempted a rapid switch to instrument-guided flight. And that, as former Naval pilot Chris Harmer says, is “very difficult.”

“The transition from flying with external reference to flying on your instruments can be very disorienting,” Harmer says.

The NTSB has a theory about disorientation as well. “Spatial disorientation,” to be more exact. “It's not uncommon at all” among pilots, explains J.F. Joseph, a retired Naval aviator. “It's basic human physiology. … When certain forces are implied on the body, that capacity to discern what's up and down, what's left and right, are not readily available.”

Investigators have explained, and independent experts confirm, that Zobayan might have experienced this in the clouds. The sensation is often, though not always, associated with vertigo. It could explain Zobayan’s left-hand turn — though that could have been part of his escape. And it likely explains his descent. No other potential explanation, mechanical or otherwise, has been found.

“You just don't make an incredibly steep descending turn like that on purpose,” says former NTSB investigator Jeff Guzzetti. “If he wants to do a 180 degree turn to get out, well then you don't descend, you just slow up and make a nice, level 180-degree turn. But that turn, the bank angle and the rate of descent was very excessive, which, in my mind, is indicative of loss of control.”

Spatial disorientation can occur quickly as your brain tries to get its 'bearings' based on visual and other senses. Spatial disorientation also most likely brought down the Atlas Air (Amazon) 767 in 2019 after the First Officer hit the TOGO (go around) switch by accident while reaching for the flaps. With TOGO power, the aircraft sped up, however, the First Officer thought they were climbing into a stall, so he tried to correct the stall that wasn't actually occurring.
