Crazy Sean

Personally I think Sean Tucker is one of the best aviators to ever have lived. He pulls some of the coolest maneuvers ever. He does the harrier which is an STOVL air craft which means Short Take Off or Vertical Landing. He goes straight up and goes full throttle and just sits there like a harrier but it looks like a helicopter. He also does a pass where he uses his rudder to tilt the air craft so he is facing diagonally up but is heading straight down the runway he then gets patched through to the speakers they have set up and as he flies by he says hi to certain people that he sees like hey you in the red shirt yeh you wave. Sean flies a one of a kind air plane called Oracle Challenger. Sean wanted an aircraft that could do everything he wanted like pull 7-8 maybe even 9 positive G's I don't remember, and 5-6 or 7 negative G's. G's by the way is the amount of gravity like say some thing weighs 10 lbs if it pulls 2 G's it will weigh 20 lbs so G's just multiplies the force of gravity to your mass so you weigh more if you pull positive G's if you pull negative G's it's the same concept but instead of getting pushed into your seat you get pulled out. All of our pilots wear G suits which is a little contraption that fits around the pilots thighs and when he/she pulls positive G's air goes into the harness and squeezes the thighs so it pushes blood back into the pilot's brain if the pilot pulls to many G's they can black out because lack of blood flow to the brain or get a grey out which is they can still see, hear, fell and talk but you can't see and if you pull to many negative G's they can get a red out which is to much blood to the brain and some times your eyes start to bug out a little. I think it took about a year or two to design and build the Challenger and every year after the air show season is over the mechanic crew disassembles the air craft to check for worn parts or to put new avionics or new safety measures.
