Abstract:

The High G Approach is an innovative approach to cockpit design which provides a unique match of pilot capabilities and airplane performance potential. The High G Approach provides an option for the pilot to think, command and control his aircraft at sustained load factor levels well above 7 G. The result, in the context of emerging fighter capability, is a dramatic increase in combat effectiveness and operational advantage. Author
