G-Induced Alterations of Consciousness in UK Military Aviation
An overall reduction in prevalence of G-induced alteration of consciousness incidents was observed, with frontline jet pilots reporting a higher proportion of incidents over time. The reported importance of high-G recency as a risk factor suggests that additional risk assessment for the G-layoff effect may be beneficial for UK frontline jet pilots.
