I have wondered if Bill Parks has the highest number of actual emergency ejections with 4? (F-104, A-12, M-21 and Have Blue). I know there are several who made more test/trial ejections, but what about actual emergency ejections? I believe there are several USN F-8 Crusader pilots with three ejections. A few Germans crews in WWII? Soviet? Others with 3, 4 or more?
