I read in some airplane book you can only pull up to 9Gs without passing out. Maybe 15Gs but only for an extremely short period of time?Finray wrote:

They can only pull up to 12 Gs, otherwise they are disqualified.-Sh1fty- wrote:

So I'm guessing if the US military had these airplanes in WW2 they would rule the skies right? Just put 2 .50s on there so it's still lightweight and out turn a Zero

Ya I know, just never seen them pull 15Gs during an event.
Why is that?TravisC555 wrote:

Also that has to be one of the most nutcase sports I've ever seen. Serious balls
The rules state it is dangerous flying. Also the max g limit of the 3 types of aircraft used is around 12G.bennisboy wrote:

It doesn't look that dangerous. I mean, other than clipping those inflated tubes the worse thing that could happen is a black out.bennisboy wrote:

A black out while flying a plane isn't a bad thing? lulz
It can be avoided easier than say...smashing into the water/ground if you're not careful. Especially on a sunny day.Jebus wrote:

Which is my point...
I'm just saying that rarely happens. So it's not that dangerous. It's dangerous, but not the kind of thing you keep thinking if you're going to go home or not.

You said you didn't think it looked dangerous.
