That’s a failure of human psychology. I bet that pilots from species with natural flying ability do better. In fact, I would expect Ackbar to be a real fiend in this regard.
Imagine you’re a fighter pilot, and you’re going to do a hull run to blow up some important part of some giant space ship. You have a mental map of the ship’s structure, and it’s probably “right side up”, so while navigating along the hull you’re probably going to orient your fighter to your mental model to take that much off your very heavy cognitive load.
And why are they all upside ? Space battle in star wars don’t take full advantage of the verticality
