"Jay Honeck" wrote: However, I did (and still) wonder about putting that much negative-G on our 34 year old airframe. Without a G meter it's impossible to know how much G was induced, but I'd say it was 50% more than I've ever done before. (The only negative G maneuver I ever do is the push-over at the top of a steep pull-up, known by my kids as an "Up-Down".) Was 50% more too much? I doubt you had the negative G's you thought you had... Trained military pilots start 'redding out' at negative 2 to 2.5 Gs and anything more than negative 1.5 is quite uncomfortable -- Chris Schmelzer, MD Capt, 110th Fighter Michigan ANG University of Michigan Hospitals Ann Arbor, MI |
