I was over the PC-9 ejection seat limit (just
, all they made me do was brief ejection 10 knots faster ..
The joke was that I would pull the ejection handle and the aircraft would eject down from me....
or of course the seat would rise 5 cm, then settle back down into place
As for the young lass... just appeal it up to the Surgeon General - ADF.. a former SG-ADF that I knew used to say they'd initially say no to see what happened.. if the person redressed it high, they would look at it properly.. the idea being they get lots of applicants so why go to the trouble..
