[Hi Rapier
In real life you use no more than 9.5 Gs. Run can confirm you that.
Only russians uses to avoid a missile more than 9Gs. But that is not a good solution. At more than 9Gs the plane can enter in a very bad sit. and you are dead already, you loose to much speed I mean energy (turn rate) , you can be desorientated for a short period of time and that makes you an easy target for the enemy, etc.
The pilots are trained to take 9.5 no more than 10 without the G suits.

Hi Tiger,

I understand what your saying about a bad situation and it's true you can lose too much speed, but dont you think it's up to the pilot to take as much G as possible if it means life or death in a dogfight. I have to agree that a pilot should not take more than 9.5 but in certain cases do he has to take a little more to gain an advantage. Although 9.5 is a hell of alot. We are talking the weight of a small mini. Incredible!
