Wow, never heard of that. Maybe it was the bad shrooms from Darwins.

Had that the other night going up to ANC. The most beautiful display I have ever seen, but looking at them made both of us feel like we were in a left turn!

Lay off the Jack Daniels the night before, hook up the autopilot and turn the lights on in your cockpit. Works for me every time!
