What is the minimium amount of negative G force that can cause a passenger 
in an airplane, standing at 50KG to be pulled upward while flying in a 
plane? Will there be a formula to calculate this negative G force ? How 
much force is required to restrain this passenger for pulling upwards in 
the event of negative G force (when plane is nose diving)?
