If I do these two things at the same time, it is possible to enter a descending turn without any change in Gs. Just as long as I continously feed in enough down elevator to offset the increasing Gs from the turn, the force on the airframe and me, the pilot, will stay at 1 G. Isn't there some sinister name for this when it happens to a non-IFR pilot in a cloud? Graveyard spiral dive |

Graveyard spiral dive Which probably isn't a coincidence, since pilots likely get into these precisely because they maintain "normal" G forces. |

You are every thing he says.. FYI a noninstument rated pilot entering IFR conditions has about 90 seconds of life remaining. The resulting high speed spiral dive is a result losing all visual references and becoming disorientated in cloud... |

Thought it was 158 seconds before he loses orientation and then whatever it
takes to crash into the hard edge of the sky. mike "george" wrote in message oups.com... Berties right! You are every thing he says..

Yeah. That 100th of a second is really relevant.
