I cannot think of many instances in an aircraft where you or the aircraft will experience a lateral g-load other than when it falls of on a wing or during spin entry maybe a slight negative load. The g-loading will either be positive or negative depending on what the aircraft is doing. I guess if you could do a fast pullup from a knife edge maneuver your body and the aircraft could experience lateral loads but from everything I have read and experienced in actual aircraft they are either positive or negative. And you will notice in the above videos that your head is not getting jerked around during high G maneuvers. I think it would be very unrealistic to introduce this into the sim. If it was introduced to the sim it should be tied to turbulence rather than g-loads.
