Relic,he should have emergency ejected,then go and beat the developers with the seat.![]()
Actually the ejection seat should have worked just fine and would have been safe to use at ground level. Based on what I read about that incident, the issue with using the ejection seat was that it was more expensive than cutting the glass canopy (which itself cost $180,000 to replace) as it would have ruined both the seat and the canopy and the interior of the cockpit (the seat has a rocket motor).wait..... what we have here is a jammed-shut canopy and you're saying that he should have attempted ejecting!??
Do me a favor, stay away from airplanes, the Turkish airforce is not ready for you yet, they're actually pretty good.![]()
