Accompanied by an equally unrealistic airspeed drop. Mass and Momentum of the Aircraft damp this Airspeed loss down considerably in real life.

2 cents Eh!
As posted the Actual documented figure is Neg G effects commence at +0.1G that is a 0.9G decrement from 1G flight. What we NOW have in Ver 1.08 is pretty close to the mark.

If you are not running Ver 1.08 you will be seeing the Old value that was way to sensitive.

WRT to Dates. The Schiling orifice didnt come into service until Post BOB. The graphic below comes from the UK National Archives document AVIA 13/234. The image is the first page of this file and is a covering minute to the file. As you can see its dated 21St Feb 1941. This document is the source document with measured G onset values of the cut as well. As can be seen even in the covering minute the values of +0.1 ---> 0g is quoted. This has all been debated (and proven) in numerous debates on this forum over the last 12 months.
