This former ejection seat test engineer approves. One of my engineering professors worked for Coleman engineering when they built the test track at Hurricane Mesa in Utah, then later worked at Stanley on the B-58 capsule and Yankee extraction system. His stories inspired me to seek a position with McDonnell-Douglas Escape Systems, ending up there a few years after graduating. Worked with development of Minipac seat and ACES II advanced sequencer. Good times. Sled tests at Hurricane and Holloman AFB, flight tests at China Lake.

I really appreciate how you put citation numbers throughout the video. I wish more youtube creators would do the same.

I guess he didn't thank the plane pilot

When you mentioned the company Martin Baker, it reminded me that the two rear seats in the Millennium Falcon cockpit set as well as the one next to the navicomputer in the main hold set were made from Martin Baker Mk IV ejection seats used on the RAF Sea Venom plane. You can even see the rails on their backs where they'd be attached to an airplane to shoot them up and out of the cockpit.

The quality of your videos just keeps getting better!

Thank you so very much for posting this. I remember the Polish artillery bear who smoked cigarettes during WWII and " Laika ", the cosmonaut- hound Russia sent up to test potential human safety prior to Homo sapiens being risked.

I saw the numbers in the left bottom corner. It's nice to see one of my favorite channels improve their videos.

@Real engineering, you've totally ignored Soviet ejection seat development history. Which was quite fascinating. Included such facts: 1. They used dogs instead of bears (on early vertical rail testing) 2. There was a case when pyrotechnical screwed up which resulted 5x or something more acceleration then it was planned. Which proofed that human can handle high but short term increased G forces 3. Early testing was conducted on ww2 era 2-tails aircraft (Pe-2 if I'm not mistaken) to minimize risk of injury (contrary to 1 tail plains) 4. At the beginning pilots were distrustful with ejection seat so tour though military aerodromes was conceived with 2-seat aircraft ejecting professional paratroopers on each stop while asking volunteers from each regiment 5. At least one design of ejection seat included feature like automatic attachment of canopy to chair during ejection to protect pilot from supersonic flight (making effective capsule for a pilot)

Great video, but it would be nice to have a parallel with the Soviet ejection seat designs, it seems there some of their designs are better. Ever seen the ejection from a doomed Mig 29 in the 1989 Paris airshow? That was pretty extreme.

That video to sponsor transition was so smooth I didn't notice until It was too late

Un-bear-ievable, great work.

Shouldn't have stealed all those picinc baskets

Also interesting to note is the ejection capsule utilised on the XB-70, which shielded the occupants in a clamshell compartment allowing for supersonic ejection. Also the early ejection seats in the F-104, which fires downwards as opposed to upwards in order to clear the high tailplane and vertical stabiliser. Safe to say that was an awful idea for any sort of low altitude ejection, but as you mentioned the technology to successfully propel the pilot away from the aircraft at high speed really didn’t exist until fairly recently.

That was a smooth transition into the add

This reminds me of that totally unrelated time we snuck into Russian and stole one of their bears, and thought it'd be funny to use as a test pilot for a new ejection seat. Good times :)
