Why not eject?
Firstly, the Hawk does have a command ejection system and the Nav in the back could have used it. But one always leaves an ejection as late as possible.
Why did I not eject? Very good question.
The blow from the duck rendered me unconcious for a period; not sure how long. When I came to I was bleeding so fast that if I had ejected I would have bled to death (I lost 4 pts). No helos in the area.
I also thought I could land the aeroplane off a GCA, despite very limited vision and no windscreen (try looking out of a car window at 200 mph). In the likely event of me screwing up I could also eject & then I would be close to the blood wagon.
In the event it all worked thanks to adrenaline. Left the aeroplane on the runway, engine running, ejector seat live. Naughty me!
