In the T-34 accident last year, a video recording showed the

So how many g's was the mishap airplane pulling?
The only correct answer you can give is "I don't know."
Bzzt, wrong, but thanks for playing.
Since the accident aircraft was keeping up, and was on the outside of
the turn, the correct answer is more than five. That's simple physics.
And since it was in a turn, there had to be a rolling component
involved as well at some point.
Keep dancing.
