Richard O'Sullivan appeared in another film as a pilot who spent the morning being distracted starting at home with his wife nagging him, then things going wrong at the base etc etc and culminating in forgetting to connect his Koch fitting or whatever that connected the dinghy to his harness. His Jag caught on fire and he ejected over the North Sea. While still thousands of feet above the water he lowered his dinghy only to watch it fall and land a mile or so away and although he was in an immersion suit that was the end of him. Does anyone remember this film? Any links to it on youtube or other sites please?
Actually I may be mixing up the "distraction" scenario with the Harrier/Phantom runway incursion end result but you get the idea.
There was also a classic USAF safety video about a jock named Chuck who ate too much chiili con carne then went flying in his T-38 and got gassy beyond his ability to deal with. Any links?
