Instances have been recorded in which fliers were unable to bail out of spinning aircraft because of centrifugal force generated by spin; study to give estimate of restictions placed on man's locomotive ability by exposure to centrifugal force was made on human centrifuge; it demonstrated that if fliers are to escape from aircraft when accelerations of 3 g or more have been developed they will need help.
