Guest mrharvester Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I was just reading about Randy Haskin's experience in the fuge. What happens to the guys who can't take 9 G's? Do many guys have a serious problem with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJDRVR Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 For anyone intersted in seeing an over-G condition during landing on the prototype MD-80, I've posted this link. http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6kuhd/md-80.mpg The mishap aircraft was at Edwards on 02 May 1983 doing landing distance trials. The Captain let his approach get a bit unstabilized, and they hit the ground at 970 fpm. (Yes you're seeing what you think you're seeing. ) [ 13.
