A case review of a CVA in a 57-year-old general officer due to positive G-force loading is presented, which is apparently the first such documented episode recorded in the literature. This case reflects the concern about high G-force loading seen in newer high-performance aircraft and has significance in the assignment of older individuals to high G-force environments.
