T-pod G Limit


Deano87

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

Question to those who know. Whats the normal G-limit when flying with the T-pod? I know it has no effect currently in the sim but I'd like to keep track of my flying and I'm wondering what the T-pod limit actually is. I've heard figures of 7.0G, but I dunno if thats legit?

 

Thanks

D

What are you talking about?

 

I KNOW it's not in the sim, I pointed that out in my question.

 

And each stores config of the jet will have a specific G-limit, beyond which the pilot will have "overstressed" the pylon/store or whatever. At which point it will require an overstress inspection to see if anything has been damaged. I'm looking for that figure, not the point at damage actually occurs.

My notes. from an much older F-16 sim but ratified by actual USAF/NATO pilots, state similar to a single centerline bag i.e. 7.0G.
