Great clips barb1191. I was a pilot many many years ago so it brought back lots of memories. I had a new copilot who had partied a little to much the night before pass out on me when we did a vertical roll and came over the top upside down one time so I can only guess how Steve felt.

Just have to share this with you as it struck me as hilarious.
My thirteen yr old great-grandson Kyle's email response to me re this ride in an F/A 18 Hornet clip was.... "wow that looked really scary and i wish i could do that because i have never passed out before." He's a great boy with such a dry wit. .....barb

Suspect he was not wearing a G suit. If so, he was set-up to pass out.

G Suit Squeezes Your Lower Body
G Suit will compress the lower body to prevent blood loss to the brain. And yes I'd suspect he had a G suit on or he wouldn't have been in the back seat. Kinda like the rules ya know. Our back seaters used to receive a plaque if they made it thru 9 G's. This pilot had kicked in the afterburners and made a hard left turn. Say goodnight David. ZZZZ
