We certainly envied you "Brits" with your Martin Baker seat - not only for their gentler boost - but perhaps more so for their zero/zero capability - we had the other two items already {:>) Ed Anderson Rv-6A N494BW Rotary Powered Matthews, NC eanderson@carolina.rr.com http://www.andersonee.com http://www.dmack.net/mazda/index.html http://www.flyrotary.com/ http://members.cox.net/rogersda/rotary/configs.htm#N494BW http://www.rotaryaviation.com/Rotorhead%20Truth.htm -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of John Slade Sent: Monday, May 31, 2010 9:49 AM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: Sky dive [off subject] >used a reduced charge in the 20mm shell to shoot us up a rail Oh yeah! I remember that. It was the day before my [first] wedding. One of the guys asked the Sergent in charge "What's it going to feel like, Sarg?" The reply ... "Biggest kick in the ass you'll ever have, sir!". The RAF motto was "put your trust in God, your mother and Martin Baker, but not necessarily in that order." Thankfully I never got to pull that handle in anger - but I had my hands on it and muscles tensed a couple of times....
