This is a very sorry story but explains why 'Pilot Incapacitation' is figuring so highly on various risk registers.......

More importantly, having been involved with various ac escape systems, I found the procedure and the physical effort required to exit a tutor, probably one of the hardest of any platform past or present. One can only imagine the terror the young lad was subjected too trying to get out!!!

Also, with the thread touching on jobs for the boys, the Med Cat was auth'd by a civvy doctor. Surely, in light of various admissions a more robust and independent medical system needs to be introduced?
