I could well be mistaken but... I seem to recall during a phase brief being shown the HUD video of a GR in an ACMI range. The story went that the pilot in question hadn't managed to claim any kills for the whole sortie so on the final 1 vs 1 vs 1 Mercedes split he got sight of one of the other jets and tried just a little too hard to pull the nose round and the jet departed. The HUD video cut out as the g mounted but what was recorded looked pretty violent.
