facthunter Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I think the Moderators have handled this before. I don't think it enhances the standing of rec flying on an "organised aspect" and we do now have two "headings' to cover this. sort of thing.

Why when I read aircraft specs is neg g is always lower than positive g in the airframe stress limits. Probably a dumb question but I don't know the answer. The positive number needs to be higher. When you are flying along, you are at 1G, not zero G. Most GA manoeuvres, like turning, add positive G's rather than result in negative G's. Aerobatic planes have more even positive and negative G's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Tuncks Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 There was a story about the top Me190 pilot who had a strong ability to withstand negative "g"s . He used to escape by thrusting the stick forward and doing a bunt. Of course he was helped by the fuel injection, instead of a carburettor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 You still need a special oiling system and fuel supply (Klunk tank principle.) I can't see how a lot of negative"G" doesn't damage everyone. Lying prone helps. Your eyes and brain pipes don't like it at all. and you can't put pressure socks on your head. Strong negative "G" feels awful. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
