Was Cpl Bayliss ordered to eject? I could see no mention of this in the report and this leaves me somewhat puzzled. Way back in the 1950's when things were far more relaxed, groundcrew and other lucky people who got to have a ride in a Vampire or Hunter T7 got a thorough briefing on what to expect and what to do/not do. Paramount was on the command "eject, eject" immediately pull legs back against the seat and reach up and pull red handle. If you say "what" you will get not reply because I would have already gone. I cannot help wondering if this is what happened in this case as the pilot got out awfully late.
