so even after 30 plus years if somebody askes me "did it pitch down?" the answer is - no. Was there a "jolt"? - yes.
I have to agree with wiggy! After 30 years plus I remember it like yesterday and I left the aircraft at 73 feet above the ground. As the seat fired I clearly remember seeing the aircraft as I shot away from the cockpit so expect my head was somewhere between my knees!!
The most memorable experience is the total silence after the ejection!
