airsickness
- n motion sickness experienced while traveling by air (especially during turbulence)
- The chief cause of airsickness is the plane's up--down motion in bumpy air (not its rolling or yawing).
- Seaplanes manage to combine the worst aspects of airsickness and seasickness, and I fear that a simulated flight might make me lose my actual lunch.
- An automatic pilot (like those on scheduled transports), to hold the plane steadier, would reduce airsickness.
