I think that auto pilot should be disabled, all control surfaces as well.  The pilot wounds should kick in if you're in blackout for over 10 seconds, still pulling Gs.  

You can still control your plane while blacked out.  I've landed my plane several times while in total blackout from wounds.  Gotta fix this.

Game reads 2 forms of blackout I believe.. the 'wounded BO' leaves the A/C controllable..

But the sustained 'G' BO will 'disconnect' your controls.. you don't get the plane back till about a half second after the black fades off. You need to have been increasing the pull while in complete BO for this to occur.

My FE displays BO effects as an increasing tunnel vison to black screen a 'g' loads build. I try to keep the oppostion in the middle of that tunnel; and avoid going black screen of any longer than 1 or 2 sec to avoid control disconnect.

Hangtime, are you sure?  I've pulled a few split-S' where I black out 3/4 of the way through and it looks like I'll hit the ground.  I then black out and steer my plane to what I believe is a safe spot where I will no longer be in danger of hitting the ground (while blacked out).  Since I don't hit the ground (while still blacked out) I assume I made it and level off to allow the Gs to lower as I regain vision, only to find the plane is exactly where I steered it while blacked out.  Or am I just lucky?
