![]() ![]() I think the incident he describes is probably the same one also narrated in Toliver/Constable's "Holt Hartmann vom Himmel" (I only have the German edition). Here is a transcript of him using the manuver. He says this either helps him get out of the way or to force a overshoot. >I have been reading some about Erich Hartmann and he refers to the Negative G Dive. Can anyone help me out in maybe showing me how this is done. I have looked on the internet and cant find anything describing how to do this manuver or pictures describing it. I like to think that people like that went back home and told their countrymen the truth about us, not the propaganda that erupted after the war, although there were some terrible things that happened, no doubt." This guy had just had one of the best meals of the war and had made new friends. He was happy to be alive, but he was very confused, since his superiors told him that Soviet pilots would be shot immediately upon capture. We gave him some food and allowed him to roam the base after having his word that he would not escape. I met and spoke with this man, a captain, who was a likeable guy. The pilot bailed out and was later captured. I came in from below in a shallow climb and flamed him. Finally I rolled into a negative G dive, out of his line of sight, and rolled out to chase him at full throttle. Then he pulled up and rolled, and we approached each other head on, firing, with no hits either way. He tried and tried to get in behind me, and every time he went to open fire I would jerk out of the way of his rounds. "Once I was in a duel with a Red Banner flown Yak-9, and this guy was good, and absolutely insane. How confusing yet extremely interesting.I have been reading some about Erich Hartmann and he refers to the Negative G Dive. So, putting those two together, the negative mass description makes it seem like the positive mass ultimately leads, but how could that be the case if we're contracting the space in front of the bubble? Maybe I'm way oversimplifying the word positive and thinking it can't possibly mean a contraction of space. Seemingly contradictory, the info for the Alcubierre drive says it contracts the space in front of the bubble and expands the space behind the bubble. I checked info on Negative mass and it seems that a positive mass and a negative mass result in the positive mass "running away" from the negative mass while the negative mass "chases" the positive mass, leading to an infinitely accelerating/runaway effect. The negative mass "pulls" you while the positive mass "pushes" you. I realize this is going to sound like the "AKCHUALLY" meme, but the Alcubierre drive's concept is that you employ exotic matter to generate negative mass in front of your ship and employ normal matter to generate positive mass behind your ship.
