There was a book I found called Test Pilot. It’s a bunch of stories written by (you guessed it!) a test pilot in the 30s who had a side job writing his tales for a newspaper between jobs. Great read!
One time he was hired on by the Navy to do dive testing, which laid the groundwork for dive bombers and divebombing techniques. G suits weren’t a thing so his vision constantly blacked out each time. If I remember right he wrote that pulling out of dives was way better when hung over
Today’s pilots are cool but these guys were a different breed
