All of that said, in my aircraft it was EJECT EJECT EJECT. Unless you met a Jaguar going the other way, in which case it was “Hi Dim” and pull !

Wasn't the selection from both changed after one met an A10? over the German plains and pulled up without warning the nav, who having being made aware about uncommanded control inputs at low level ( when one flew close to a transmitting mast ) ejected, thus taking the pilot who hadn't had time to warn him about the A10
? with him, from a perfectly servicable jet?..
