Looking for a Rifter article on Aircraft maneuvers
I've been looking for an article which covered aircraft maneuvers, specifically on G-forces a pilot can handle and for the life of me I cannot find the Rifter it was in. Does anyone have an idea which Rifter I'm thinking of?

Re: Looking for a Rifter article on Aircraft maneuvers
the rifter index at nexusnine.net can be a big help.
looking there... rifter #33 has an article on air combat, which IIRC includes some manuvers.
Rifter #5 has an article on air combat as well, which IMO works well with the stuff in rifter 33.
really though, my suggestion would be to find a nice non-rpg source on air combat manuvers. these usually go into more depth on different tactics, which you can combine with the above rifter articles.
myself, i have a manual from the old F-19 Stealth Fighter flight sim, which includes not only air combat manuvers, but also tips on manuvering for stealth.
i also have a copy of the game manual for Chuck yeager's air combat, an older flight sim game. it included a large section on air combat manuvers and tactics, with nice easy to read illustrations.
actually, there is an online copy from the 2nd edition of the F-19 game here, which should help.
wikipedia alos has a page that might help,
