This kind of system has been talked about for 35 years (reference Nova--Top Gun and Beyond, airdate Jan. 1988). That shows you how fast the wheels of bureaucracy can turn sometimes. It's a great system and I'm glad we now have it.
From an old sailor who worked on A-7E this is very cool thank for your service and I have enjoyed watching your performance as a Air Force Fighter along with your content with Mover.
Sir, Thanks for responding yesterday on Movers Poscast. I will post my response here as well. Thanks again, I grew up as an avgeek, and get to provide on the civilian side. Thanks Rain and Mover… didn’t think about WPB also relating to Wright Patt, but he nailed it, west palm beach. I actually have a iPhone clip of you departing from our facility multiple times, awesome! You come out of those trees at the east end like a boss! Legacy F100 with the fueldraulic noise is still music to my ears, although admitting that the F110 is much cleaner. It’s like screech in the F-22/F35, love it or hate it. 🙂. There is a good video on the facility called “Thunder in the Sun” and it goes thru it all. Thanks again boys!
Thank God that the USAF decided to employ this system. I know to some it might seem that flying these incredible machines is easy, but I'm sure that it's not the case. Thank God that this pilot is safe and sound.
old Viper Crew Chief. Thanks for the videos, sir. New sub here. Thanks for your service, sir! GLOC is no joke. At Nellis, all of our Viper Drivers have HUGE muscular necks. We could usually spot them in civvies. :) You guys were bad asses and we wanted to make sure you have bad ass birds. We had 99.5 FMC on our bird. She was a beast! I think she's still serving.
Thank you for breaking this down. I've often wondered how pilots can survive such high G maneuvers during an engagement, and what could be done if they go to sleep.
Hello Maj Waters...great to see you after such a long time... I hope you remember your international student from Pakistan Lt Rashid, Jibran 2009-10 41st KCBM
Amazing! I know a lot of pilots didn’t like the thought of the jet taking control over from them when The program first came online, but to hear how many lives it’s saved, I know a lot of them have come to appreciate it. Im assuming the Viper Demo jet has AGCAS disabled?
Great video as always John. What happens to the student after landing? Would he be kicked out of the F-16 course? I was an avionics tech on F-15's at Tyndall years ago, and when a student would G-LOC, it seems like they were failed out of the course.
Most likely not unless it is a repeat scenario. My guess is they sent him to redo centrifuge training. If he didn't have any issue it was back to the races.
Most likely not. Typically, they would accomplish additional G tolerance training and evaluation. My guess is another trip to the centrifuge and then back at it.
This is what i was wondering also. I could imagine in the heat of the moment during the merge, especially when you're trying to strut your stuff as a trainee, it's easy to forget to do the physical maneuvers to keep you from passing out. Which is another thing i'm wondering. Even with the G-Suit. Do you still need to tighten your legs up etc? Does it make a difference with the suit?
When Kelly one says knock it off (or something like that, i could not make out what the pilot was saying) and then the second pilot says kelly 2 knock it off...was Kelly 2 the pilot who has now regained consciousness?
Hey Rain, I ask this question out of shear curiosity. Considering the machines like the F-35 are highly maneuverable, why isn't this system mandated in all fighters? In turn, I could care less what happens to the aircraft as long as each pilot that flies these jets survive.
This tends to get most pilots fired up. But my guess it comes down to money. The F-35 is slated to get AGCAS if it isn’t already making its way into the US fleet.
@@AfterburnPodcast, thanks for the response. My concern is solely focused on providing this nation's greatest men and women, my heros, with the best and safest aircraft. You, and other fighter pilots, already sacrifice so much to Americans, you shouldn't have to sacrifice safety when it can be mitigated. I hope that my statement makes sense to you.
Saving so many lives. We need this in General aviation.
It's a game changer
Excellent explanation. Thanks for sharing. I also liked how the jet didn't care about pulling 9 Gs to recover.
That's how awesome the F-16 is. You can pull 9g all day and the jet don't care.

I had fun flying down there! Airshow is one of the best and being able to stage out of that facility was a lot of fun to say the least.
Awesome breakdown, more of these please!

Spectacular The Afterburn Podcast
awesome-glad you were on CW Lemoine's channel- now I got two pilots to follow
'Merica!
Thank you for breaking this down. I've often wondered how pilots can survive such high G maneuvers during an engagement, and what could be done if they go to sleep.
Thank you for the amazing content as usual!! Its my goal to be a fighter pilot :)
🤟🏻
Just saw your interview with Mover and it was amazing.. I've always wanted to know how the demo gets practiced. Love both your channels💪
Glad you enjoyed it!
"rain" how amazing can you be?!!! Top gun stuff. So proud... amazing one!
I love the f16 videos like these! Thank you!
Great stuff John-thank you!
Hello Maj Waters...great to see you after such a long time... I hope you remember your international student from Pakistan Lt Rashid, Jibran 2009-10 41st KCBM
Quite well! Hope all is well! What are you flying these days?
@@AfterburnPodcast JF17 Thunder for the past 6 years.. everything is great. How is everything at your end. I hope your and your family are doing well.

Awesome video and explanation, John. I caught some previous videos of your demo flights. Subscribed and following.
Awesome, thank you!
Amazing video very informative and a great bit of kit.

hey john my cousin was a gambler from the mid eighties up till about 96, then transferred to pope a couple of years before he retired.
Tell him to Double Down 🇺🇸
Amazing.
Wonderfull AGCAS
I’m the captain now. LOL!
Awesome vid! Thanks Sir 😊👍
Awesome
Will such an incident lead to a flight student being removed from the program?
Most likely not. Typically, they would accomplish additional G tolerance training and evaluation. My guess is another trip to the centrifuge and then back at it.

AGCAS Fantastic Military Pilot Simulator. F 16 Fighting Falcon Wonderfull.
In the F-16 community it's called "Auto-Gee-Cass", and that's typically the easiest way to say it.
Was this guy flying alone or two seater
Would the student be washed for this? Would his time in the F16 be over?
So the sleep schedule of a fighter pilot is all over the place. Why is it all over the place exactly ?
Hi John i have a question,
What is your vision exactly ?
is it 20/20 ?
20/20
this video has gold value due to the little education provided, wont bad guys use it for there advantage?
naaah, 9G's is crazy. bro on warthunder
