Zero-g is very disorienting to humans. But an experienced pilot could probably handle it and push themselves towards the cockpit.

- stretchcat 6y agoAn experienced airline pilot almost certainly has zero experience moving around in zero-g. Pilots just aren't trained for moving around a freefalling airplane. There are only a handful of 'vomit comets' in existence that could provide such training, and I've never heard of airline pilots being trained in them.
- lolc 6y agoI didn't mean to say that pilots have zero-g training. I just assume that most pilots could handle zero-g enough to orient themselves towards the cockpit. But maybe that's optimistic.
