      In civilian flight school that is called an emergency descent but I'm a Vietnam veteran and experienced this in a C-7A to avoid enemy small arms fire that was expected to be taken on a long, slow, low attitude final.
      There was no warning. We were flying straight and level and then suddenly, nose down, low left wing, spiralling. I wasn't afraid. I knew it wouldn't hurt to die at that speed. The load master explained what it was about after landing. I would have appreciated that explanation before the experience. I also had one JATO in a C-130 from Pope AFB. Military flying is EXHILARATING! Military pilots are badass.

      Similar story: Way back in the day United let you listen in on cockpit comms if you had headphones to plug in. I was on a late flight into Denver on a 772, and I hear approach give clearance for an ILS approach. Pilot replies that he has the field in sight, and asks for a visual instead. Approach comes back and says sure, you're number one in line, knock yourself out. I'm on the right side of the plane, and I can see the field, and we are just about even with the runway. Pilot goes for maybe 20 more seconds, drops his gear, then begins a descending slow right turn, and levels out to flare just as we hit the end of the runway. He absolutely kisses the runway, too. That is my favorite landing of all time.

      They do a lot of reading and research, whether on the capabilities of enemy aircraft and air defense systems, or new capabilities being developed for their aircraft.
      When they're not flying they're either debriefing the previous flight or planning the next one. Both are painstaking, detailed processes.

After we landed, they wanted me to enlist to become a pilot, saying there's very few people that could withstand those Gs and still remain cognitive.

    Once I chauffeured a fellow around NASA in the late 69’s. He had arrived at the little airport in a twin engine V tailed plane, he asked me if I wanted a ride. We took off got some altitude, free around about 10 minutes and then the pilot slipped down from around 5000 feet to land at the runway which seemed to be almost underneath us when he started. I was stunned at the maneuver! I asked him weren’t we supposed to line on the runway from way back…he said he didn’t need to, so I asked him where he learned to do that and he said “oh, I flew P-51s over in Europe during the war.”
