Phi, thanks for the comments.


Well, you are never going to reach -7.5g though. After -5g you'll get irreversible eye and brain damage due to blood-vessel rupture..

But outstanding video! What a rush! What a talent!


I hate to contradict you but aerobatic pilots regularly go well beyond -5g, you simply have to condition your body to withstand it. This means though that if you out of it for more then a week or so you have to build your tolerance back up. The Russian team (prop team) regularly goes beyond -10g but it takes extreme conditioning, where simply a matter of a few days not performing negative G aerobatics will cause the need to build it back up again.

SUPERB ! Aerobatics perfomed by gliders is still something very nice, but such figures are really, really impressive.

Max neg G's are more limited on jets (Alphajet limited to -3.8G's for instance). On the long run, hey are dangerous.

anyway it's awesome

This is possible without engine, and with good updrafts...this is a real bird.

I think that the swift's VNE is about 320 Km/h (173 Kts), that makes quite good cinetic energy.

Awesome. Those outside loops must feel 'special'. Cool how he departs the glider.

I wonder how many neg. G's he's pushing there...

at 28'', at least -3.5 G's in my advice...Knowing that negatives G are much more uncomfortable to bear...and without anti-g suit...This guy is strong!

They're also dangerous, and can cause permanent damage to the eye's and cranium.

Of course!

Hello pampalnx,
You must thank G-lock1 for this footage. He was the idea; I only remixed the music, and uploaded it on Patrick's Aviation ;)
