This forum is for ideas and suggestions, so here are some suggestions:  no dot dar, no moving map, no bail out if G-meter is over +-3 G.

Bailing out in -G should be possible.

Bailing out anything over +2G would be very hard to do.

I would like to see a limiter that would prevent bail outs under conditions of

1. high velocity spins (i.e. DPS in excess of 10)

2. high speed (i.e. bailing out over 150MPH would be very dangerous and could cause death)

Not sure, but i know you could roll the plane over upside-down and drop out
