@t8g2000prg.googlegroups.com:

A back of the envelope scribble says a smooth sinusoidal quatercycle
from 0 to 20 degrees bank if done in something like a half a second
would make a px sitting about 20 feet from the centerline experience a
third of a g max. I think a half second is doable -- but very
unlikely.

Sounds like mountains and molehills, or, more likely, I really don't
remember how to scribble meaningful stuff on the back of an envelope.



Well, as someone else posted, t'd more likely through turbulence, but the
thing would be FBW anyway, so it wouldn't be an issue.
I can definitely see something like this appearing in the future. In flight
anything that is not a wing is a waste, and as the Horten's proved, they
can be made to work, and work well.


But let's ask the expert,

Anthony?
