I'm pretty sure this happened not far from where I live...
I think this was actually the same pic I saw in the paper. |

I bet it didn't even faze him.
I, on the other hand, would lay down good money that he almost shat his flight suit. |

Not just because they are trained and skilled but because life is much more important than a piece of machinery. |

There is a minimum distance that you should eject by before you start risking serious injury or death. It's a matter of the chute deploying and decelerating you enough so that you can actually walk away. I'm thinking this guy is probably under that distance. If so, he's one LUCKY guy. |

@WeePee
planes are engineered to be safe while flying. not while plumetting to earth. becuase well lets face it, there is nothing you can do to an airplane that will make a crash like that any less fatal. except obviously the parachute. the reason it exploded is because of all the fuel onboard when it hit the ground, hot parts plus flammable fuel equals bang. |

how fast was that plane going that it explodes on contract? i mean the crash didn't look that fast. i would hope planes would be engineered a bit stronger. |

@Queenohearts, I like how you refer to them as "the innocents." You're like the BP chairman and how he looks after the "little people." |

Interesting that this happens when the federal government is in the controversial process of buying new jets... just sayin'
-----------------
Maybe they're in a cartel with the media and the jet plane industry, and they're training a ton of modern-day Evil Knievils to learn to eject just before crashing into various places so that the jet companies have a steady source of income and the media has a constant stream of news stories! |

the pilot is fine an ejection that close to ground can save your life and save you from permamnent injury.
the reason he most likely waited that long is because he knows what he as to do. when a pilot's plane is crashing their first priority is not their lives but the lives of the innocents that are on the ground. you purposely steer the plane away from all civilians even if it means your own life. |
