The myth of positive G-forces along the Z axis of our body in fast #aerobatics’ planes causing #nausea… Where does it come from?

Negative Gs, even 0 G — yeah, makes sense, and we have ample evidence. But the +5 G on a hard turn / pull?

People mistake the plus with the minus?

Back to #math problems in school? Again?! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Some things can only be lived through to understand. High-G #aerobatics is one of them. Nothing can simulate these very particular sensations.

Fascinating to see a YouTube commenter react in the same way I (or any pilot) do when we see -3G on the meter😵

After a period of #memory retrieval remembered how to swing on a swing. Confirmed my #childhood hunch that flying #aerobatics is way cooler.
