The stick input has been analyzed during deliberate self-induced +Gz loss of consciousness (G-LOC) on the USAF School of Aerospace Medicine human centrifuge. An F-16A stick was utilized with output of + or - pitch, + or - roll, an on-off binary sensory being obtained in 1/8-second intervals during G-LOC and recovery. The results are applicable to emerging aircraft autorecovery technology. The currently known physiologic aspects of G-LOC and their time relationship are review in relationship to the potential use of stick force as a rather simplistic G-LOC physiologic monitoring technique.
