| Subject: | ejection seat stats |
Agree with all comments re hot seats. Agree best to fly it if problem.
Actually done this with deadstick in the circuit.(failed fuel
pump/regulator) 2 years ago.
BUT
Still extra option to use in worst case scenario (airframe failure, engine
failure whilst flying over mountains, control failure).
I sincerely hope never to use it.
Anyone else ever had a deadstick?

Most of the time the material on this forum is basically "junk email", and
it's not very often that there is a WELL written opinion on this forum.
Bill's opinion in this case is straight forward, to the point and SO true!
I see a hot seat of the vintage we are talking about as more of a hazard and
liability than anything else.
Chances are it's gonna kill you if you use it, so might as well do the most
important thing as Bill mentioned. FLY THE AIRPLANE!
Last year a guy overhead Stead Airport in Reno, Nevada was doing aerobatics
in a Skybolt and the wing failed/rippped off the airplane. He did not have
an ejection seat and was faced with a cripled structually damaged aircraft
that was uncontrollable. He scrambled out of the aircraft and deployed his
parachute and floated safely to the ground.
Of course airliners don't have ejection seats, but what is POUNDED into us
in training is
Silence the Warning and then
1. FLY THE AIRPLANE
2. FLY THE AIRPLANE
3. FLY THE AIRPLANE
4. FLY THE AIRPLANE
5. FLY THE AIRPLANE
