I knew a Belgium AF Starfighter pilot who ejected on short finals due to a fire warning and saw his aircraft land on the runway and stop in the barrier. No damage.

Also saw the F4 nav eject in 1986 at a Bournemouth airshow when the left tyre burst on take off. The aircraft got airborne from the grass and landed safely at Boscombe Down. I think a lot of the crowd thought it was part of the show.
