Description
In this episode we take an in-depth look at ejection seats: a brief history, how they work, how aircrew inspect them before flight, and why--in multi-place aircraft--it is important to have the 'Eject Select' switch in the proper position. Our guest wraps the discussion with a riveting description of the time an ejection seat saved his life from a doomed F-14 Tomcat.
