TECHNOLOGY OF DEVELOPMENT OF VESTIBULAR STABILITY OF STUDENTS TO ENSURE FLIGHT SAFETY IN THE CIVIL AVIATION

The article examines the monitoring of indicators of physical condition of the students, future civil aviation specialists. It is proved that the decrease of the level of health among students has an impact on the effectiveness of the learning process at the University. The paper argues that the work of a specialist in the civil aviation is one of the most complex types of human labor activity, which leads to the need for radical improvement of the individual functions and systems of the body, providing high physical performance, vestibular stability, health preservation. The improvement of aviation technology imposes increased requirements on development of the problem of the man‑plane‑environment, thus determines the need for a detailed study of the structure of the professional activities of a civil aviation specialist, the development of methods that increase the reliability and efficiency of his work. In the article, the authors propose a method of training focused on the development of vestibular stability with an emphasis on the use of swimming, when the physiological changes of the body are determined by the complex influence of the factors of the aquatic environment. The experimental method was selected in such a way as to simultaneously solve the problems of physical, vestibular training and health promotion. For this purpose, a wide range of active, passive and combined training was used, in which various accelerations were applied to the vestibular apparatus. The results obtained in the work allow increasing the resistance to motion sickness and thereby reduce the risk of adverse manifestations of aerobatic overload on the human body. The authors prove that the improvement of vestibular stability is one of the most promising areas in prevention of motion sickness of the flight personnel (especially on the eve of creation of new generation of the aircrafts), in improving the safety of civil aviation.
