A declassified footage from the US Air Force shows the moment when an F-16 test pilot passed out in mid-air due to G-LOC. The F-16 pilot was flying over US southwest as a part of a training exercise on 5 May. <br /> <br />The pilot, whose call sign is Ocho, was performing basic fighter manoeuvres when the plane hit about 8.3 G (in G-Forces) in turn. <br /> <br />The jet began to steeply nose-dive without warning from 17,000 feet to under 5,000 feet. The mid-air drama took place in less than 20 seconds. <br /> <br />Ocho’s instructor Major Luke O’Sullivan, who was flying next to him, can be heard yelling ‘RECOVER!’ to the pilot during the nose dive. <br /> <br />At that point, the Auto-GCAS kicked in and started pulling the jet out of the nose dive with seconds to spare. <br /> <br />For more videos like this visit http://www.catchnews.com/video/
