Fighter Pilot's ordeal - passes out. Guess what happens next.

More about the incident here (PopularMechanics.com).
What exactly is Auto GCAS?

How many Gs was the pilot facing?

G Forces
Immediately above the airspeed tape is the current G force on the aircraft. This is 1.0 when you are straight and level flight, but will increase when you turn or do other flight maneuvers. The maximum G force the aircraft has experienced since it started is displayed underneath the Mach number (in this case, it is 2.6). This is used for maintenance, and also so you can check the maximum G force you pulled in a turn (in case you were distracted or missed it). Source.
