I had a co-worker lose his life to spatial disorientation during a night-training flight in Italy: "Maj. Lucas "Gaza" Gruenther, a pilot assigned 31st Fighter Wing, went missing during a nighttime training mission over the Adriatic Sea Jan. 28. In the days that followed, Italian and U.S. authorities collaborated as part of in an immense search effort to locate Gruenther. The search ended Jan. 31 when Gruenther's body was recovered by an Italian vessel... Gruenther completed more than 2,640 hours of flying time to include 400 combat hours."

It's also how John F. Kennedy Jr. died. He was neither trained nor rated for instrument flying, and crashed when his plane flew into fog. This is an all-too-common way for GA pilots to die. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_F._Kennedy_Jr._plane_cras...
