Eli5, how fighter jet pilots do not crash when they become unconscious due to high g force?
In: Other
They used to crash a whole lot but sometime after Fly-by-wire was introduced someone rigged the autopilot to the radar altimeter so the plane levels out when it gets too close to the ground. It’s not perfect but it’s often just enough to keep the plane flying long enough for the pilot to wake up.
