G-LOC

Pilot G-LOCs about 14.000 ft and recovers the aircraft at scary 1.500 ft!! The G index is right above the airspeed on the left side of the HUD. I think is from a F-16.

I saw the original on a NOVA PBS special. The aircraft was a 2 seat f-16. The student in the front seat reacted to something and went straight to 9 gee and put promptly himself to sleep. The instructor in the back seat didn't realize that studly G-loc'ed himself until it was almost too late. The original sound track is pretty interesting.

Thanks for the info!

Because many of you have been anking about the voices, I only know that they are obviously not the original. They were added later to make them more clear as this video was used as an example of a G-LOC mishap, for training purposes I would say.
