Still on, no problem. I didn't hear from canadave lately but as I'm not near doingany docs yet, well. We'll ask in the meaning time

DocHoliday wrote:I'm not sure I got that about the lift being used as a brake because of the angle? The way I see it, you were hanging at like 100km and controlling your rate of descent with hover only, trying to keep the horizotnal speed around 0..?Of course, if I know you, you just let it drop down like a rock and then engaging full thrust at 10km or so, which'd explain the high Gs
During a normal re-entry, you're supposed to raise your nose so that some of the lift that the DG produces adds to the braking,
It almost seems that while you pilot the dg3, you have no danger of dying of g's, because the force required to get the crew to die from such a thing would burn the hull out long before.
