I would think that there are also other reasons for limiting acceleration, including the amount of energy available for acceleration. Jets are already sucking fuel like no tomorrow. More fuel = more mass = less acceleration. Aerodynamic heating would also cause an effect if such accelerations were sustained, leading to phenomena like the "heat-lengthening" of the YF-12A. However, materials and equipment which can survive extremely large Gs are part of missile systems already deployed. ------- Mark Cashman, creator of the Temporal Doorway at http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Lofts/5623/ http://www.infohaus.com/access/by-seller/The_Temporal_Doorway_Storefront Original digital art, writing and UFO research mcashman@ix.netcom.com
