    I'd seen those videos before, but never realized how truly amazing were the feats of ejection performed by those seats. Wow.

    "The best decisions about 'when to go' are made in the pilot's lounge." A recent airshow collision between an AD-1 Skyraider and a P-51 Mustang demonstrates this. The P-51 got smacked from underneath by the Skyraider. From the time of impact to the time the pilot left the aircraft was the amount of time needed to physically release the canopy and bail out plus the neurological time needed to think, "BAD THING! GO!" No thinking, just reaction. Live pilot.

    This is a great video to link to in all the military crash videos. Everyone always says in the comments "Why didn't he eject!!!" and you can just link back to this. I always wondered why some people didn't eject until this, now its easy to see. THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD! Very interesting and insightful!

    Back in my era, the early '60s, you sat on a 20mm cannon shell (w/ just the propellant) and this resulted in a shock to the spine when you went out. Some died because they didn't separate from the seat and pull the D ring. Others died because of design. The first 13 to punch out of an F-102 hit the tail and died. I flew the F-104 C/D with downward ejection, made that way to keep people from hitting the tail on the way out. After a Korean War ace, Ivan KInchelow, died ejecting downward immediately after T/O, the AF went to upward ejection, but while downward ejection was in vogue it felt sexy as hell walking out to the plane with spurs on. While you were strapping in you pulled cables with a ball on the end from under the sear and inserted them into the back of the spurs. This prevented your legs from flopping upward if you ejected.

    • @hoghogwild
      @hoghogwild 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@TheRockerxx69 Spurs are sharp spikes worn on the back of cowboy boots that are dug into the side of a horse while riding. Pilot spurs are also located on the back of flight footwear, but these spurs are connected to the ejection seat in order to keep your legs close to t eat so your knees don't get caught on the cockpit on your way out. The ejection seats in the Mach 3+ A-12/SR-71/YF-12A also had the pilots/backseaters wearing spurs on their boots. If you go to the Dayton Ohio AirForce museum, they have the very last YF-12A in existence there. It was involved in an incident where the pilot and WSO were on the ground and they had to exit the plane quickly. There are ,arks/holes left on the skin of the plane where the "spurs of the mens boots caused damage as they clammered down out of the plane.

      @@hoghogwild Thanks very kind of you. We ve had military pilots around the house a lot, because my father was one on WWII , on props ehehehehe , but his friends were jet s F84 F86 F104, sold by the USA to our Italian forces, aces I would say because they survived the F104 s, they were instructors too, damn tuff guys, I think I knew something about those cow boy type spurs, but could not recall it, I m just 67 y.o. eheheheh

    Not sure about that but I've heard each ejection does compress your spine permanently. I believe two ejections will ground you from flying in the military or they will reassign you to helicopters or another model that doesn't have ejection seats due to what could happen to your body if it had to endure a third ejection..

    In answer to the question"What caused the F4 in the opening sequence to crash" according to Tony Gaunt in"2016/11.lecture The History and Development of Martin Baker" it was FOD , a spanner (Wrench) left in the cockpit, allowing the stick to be pulled back, but then NOT pushed forward!

    The early F-104 had a downward track(bottom ejecting) ejection seat.
    2 of the ejections seats on a B-52 eject from the bottom as well.

  • @dtiydr
    @dtiydr 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Its a fact as well. And due to the force involved you are only allowed to eject 2 or 3 times from an airplane and after that you are actually permantly grounded (dont think this will go for every airplane but in the airforce you are done) because you could damage your spine if you would eject again.

  • @strikerbot4545

    That's for the older blasting-cap style Russian seats. I believe it's more like 4 or 5 for US seats and the possibly more for the newer Russian seats.

    martin baker people claimed that after pulling the handle your body experiences 18G going up i wonder what it must have been for the first OXCART test pilot who punched out downward he made it alive though once thing for sure repeating the procedure doesn't hurt repetition is the best way to learn things whether you're a musician or a pilot or else

    @bajesus666 I'm pretty sure it's the same principle, I see no way why it could've changed, I play the DCS A-10C simulator which is the same that the US Air Force uses, and thanks to that video, I survived twice from a battle damaged A-10C. First ejection was simple. Both wings teared off, time to punch out. Second one, was more complicated. I had only one wing teared off, and before my first ejection I had stabilized with one wing. But this time It didn't worked and I punched out 1 second short.

      That was my friend Pete Pilcher. Production test pilot at the time. This was in St Louis on that airplanes first flight. He showed me the stick grip they gave him mounted on a plaque. It was burned a bit. They determined it was a flashlight left in the mixing unit and jammed the flight controls up.

    So are military aviators stigmatized by their colleagues and chain of command if they've had to eject b/c of pilot error, thus perhaps negatively incentivizing them into delaying ejection whilst hoping to recover the bird, or have enough of those poor bastards died as a result of delaying egress that pilots aren't bothered by the delay-effect and they make rational decisions about when to get out? Thx...

    Very instructive! But at 14:27 with a 90° Roll there could be a upward ejection vector if you're sitting on a Russian Zvezda K-36 ejection seat: Gyros + thrust vectoring which saved many Russian pilots including this one /watch?v=dz4gLrPsCYQ or these two /watch?v=Yh-kuztsE1s
