Blackouts from pilot wounds
« on: March 28, 2014, 12:54:39 PM »
  The thread about blackouts from high g turns got me thinking about blackouts from pilot wounds.  Hopefully Skuzzy will jump on this one, as well.

   I am guessing that there are various degrees of pilot wounds, some make you black out more often than others.  Will pulling heavy g's make the blackouts, and eventual death, happen sooner?

All three "fluid leak" damage types, oil, water and blood, have a random factor to them in AH that varies how fast the fluid is drained.

So there's the classic shoulder wound  :mad:, the femoral artery wound  :eek: and the "My legs! Johnny I can't feel my legs!" wound.  :cry

Are you sure about that?  I'd think where the damage occured would decide what the loss is but you're 100% positive it's simply random and have something to back that up?

Four..

Radiator leak is not oil, wouldn't it be coolant?
