This report is the fourth in a series dealing with the longitudinal study of airsickness in the Basic, Advanced, and Fleet Readiness Squadrons comprising the Naval Flight Officer Training Program. Flight data are presented on a second group of VT-10 students receiving basic training under a new flight syllabus. Of the 388 students considered in the report, approximately 81 percent reported being airsick and one or more flights, 53 percent reported vomiting on one or more flights, and 67 percent considered their flight performance to have been degraded by airsickness on one or more hops. Of the 5,365 hops flown by the students, airsickness, vomiting, and performance degradation were reported to have to occurred on 23, 11, and 15 percent, respectively, of the flights. The report details the flight data by hops and by students and also relates the airsickness performance of the student group to performance on a selected battery of motion reactivity tests administered to a large segment of the squadron population prior to beginning flight training.
