820:" often experienced by pilots. As a pilot enters a turn, hair cells in the semicircular ducts are stimulated, telling the brain that the aircraft, and the pilot, are no longer moving in a straight line but rather making a banked turn. If the pilot were to sustain a constant rate turn, the endolymph would eventually catch up with the ducts and cease to deflect the cupula. The pilot would no longer feel as if the aircraft was in a turn. As the pilot exits the turn, the semicircular ducts are stimulated to make the pilot think that they are now turning in the opposite direction rather than flying straight and level. In response to this, the pilot will often lean in the direction of the original turn in an attempt to compensate for this illusion. A more serious form of this is called a
597:. The superior and posterior semicircular ducts are oriented vertically at right angles to each other. The lateral semicircular duct is about a 30-degree angle from the horizontal plane. The orientations of the ducts cause a different duct to be stimulated by movement of the head in different planes, and more than one duct is stimulated at once if the movement is off those planes. The lateral semicircular duct detects angular acceleration of the head when the head is turned and the anterior and posterior semicircular ducts detect vertical head movements when the head is moved up or down. When the head changes position, the

Within approximately 10 seconds of achieving constant motion, the endolymph catches up with the movement of the duct and the cupula is no longer affected, stopping the sensation of acceleration. The specific gravity of the cupula is comparable to that of the surrounding endolymph. Consequently, the cupula is not displaced by gravity, unlike the

The stimulation of the hair cells sends the message to the brain that acceleration is taking place. The semicircular canals open into the vestibule by five orifices, one of the apertures being

is immediately medial to it. The posterior semicircular canal is part of the bony labyrinth and its duct is used by the vestibular system to detect rotations of the head in the coronal plane. It is the longest of the three semicircular canals, measuring from 18 to 22 mm (0.71 to 0.87 in).

813:. Deflection in the opposite direction results in hyperpolarisation and inhibition. In the lateral semicircular duct, ampullopetal flow is necessary for hair-cell stimulation, whereas ampullofugal flow is necessary for the anterior and posterior semicircular ducts.
824:. Rather than the pilot leaning in the direction of the original turn, they may actually re-enter the turn. As the endolymph stabilizes, the semicircular ducts stop registering the gradual turn and the aircraft slowly loses altitude until impact with the ground.

Among species of mammals, the size of the semicircular canals is correlated with their type of locomotion. Specifically, species that are agile and have fast, jerky locomotion have larger canals relative to their body size than those that move more cautiously.

It measures from 12 to 15 mm (0.47 to 0.59 in), and its arch is directed horizontally backward and laterally; thus each semicircular canal stands at right angles to the other two. Its ampullated end corresponds to the upper and lateral angle of the
