The blue angels, last I heard, don't use the G-suits to resist blacking out from high-G turns.
They have this odd mentality of "Huh, whazzat?" about them.
They use a method called 'suck & grunt' to resist blacking out.
You push against the seat harness, tighten your calf and thigh muscles and your gut, and basically inhale and hold your breath.
*snort*
Think there was a samll article or book on it, "Real men don't use G-suits"
