never flown in anything but commercial. But I’m guessing that the net change from 4.5 to -0.6 was the real deal.

also, heart best of 136 while putting on the seat belt was something.
 
The ground crew that strapped that old guy in didn't do a very good job. Properly secured in the seat, those G numbers wouldn't have been any problem.

The same thing happened years ago in an F14 Tomcat back in 2002. They took an officer for a ride and he inadvertently pulled the ejection handle during a maneuver but in this case the seats were set to go off by themselves basically and the pilot was able to land the plane.
