Green Flash
Not sure what you're getting at - the particular aircraft I mentioned, the second production GR5 ZD 325, flew on without its pilot beore running out of fuel & crashing in the Irish Sea - yes it flew but with a tragic outcome.
Icarus, according to legend, ' at least flew ' but he was let down unfortunately by his design team & engineering, rather than Safety Equipment dept which he hadn't thought to ask.
That the Gripen should suffer undemanded ejection - if it's by G-suit that's a pretty poor comment on design & flight testing - is interesting, as I've already seen one innocent & highly skilled person killed by a faulty seat...
