Master Sgt. Patricia Manzur-Ballard, Aerospace and Operations Physiology craftsman, demonstrates the effect of the Barany chair with Panamanian Capt. Juan Alvarado, helicopter pilot, March 11 at the 359th Aerospace and Operational Physiology Training Unit on Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph. The chair, named for the Hungarian physiologist who invented it, is used demonstrate spatial disorientation and helps pilots understand why they must trust flight instruments over their own senses. Alvarado is one of the students from the Inter-American Squadron Officer School who toured JBSA-Randolph.  The Inter-American Squadron Officer School is a professional military education course taught in Spanish to members of several Latin American federal agencies and U.S. Air Force captains.  There are 17 students from the U.S., Colombia, Panama and Guatemala in this class. The school is part of the 37th Training Wing at JBSA-Lackland’s Inter-American Air Forces Academy.
