unlimited inverted flight

[Logan54]

I m not a pro, but seems like Super Hornet have about 25-30 seconds for being inverted, but ingame Hornet can do it unlimited right?

It's not unlimited, just takes a really long time to get the same effect. Not sure if it's realistic or if it used to be like that.

Right

IRL, the negative G limitations usually concern the engine lubrication system. Engine oil will not flow where it's supposed to, but this only becomes an issue after a while. There's probably a considerable engineering margin involved, AFAIK this is a fairly common limitation, and exceeding it should lead to engine trouble. I don't think it's simulated, though.

I think the DCS Hornets engine quits after a while due to fuel flow issues. I believe that because a friend of mine proved, that while refueling invertet he can indeed fly inverted for an unlimmited preriod of time.
