Not sure what an F-1 is but that was an F-18, riding with the Blue Angels! Kelly Clarkson puked during her flight btw
I've done over 4gs on the Mission to Space ride at Epcot, pretty badass! Also have been weightless in military flight, they don't care so much about turbulence

I'm wondering if the passengers get a G suit on the ride alongs?

It hits you with close to 4gs and a couple of negative gs before it's over. The seats vibrate, it's loud and moves FAST.
