Cotty says... "If you haven't experienced considerable G force before, get the pilot to break you in gently. My eyeballs turn to mush past 2 G, but I'm a wimp. If you can withstand 2G, you'll be okay to 3, but I doubt gliders get that close. Put it this way, if the wing decides to seperate from the fuselage, you've probably gone past 3 G. Not putting you off am I?
You'll have a great flight, enjoy it." Indeed - the most unusual thing about glider flights is the accelleration - as it was described to me, it's like throwing a rock off a cliff... Multiple G at the bottom of a dive is not unusual, not flown inverted (but have rolled...) in a glider. Actions are quite slow and deliberate - but great fun. Didn't have camera with me, but next time.... Lack of noise is eerie!
