There was a thread about this 10 years ago, but I've been looking through the MoD Archive at old Flight Safety Posters:
https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20060116221431/http://www.mod.uk/dasc/publicity/poster_cat_01.htm

I am sure there used to be a couple of posters on the subject of "Eject In Time" but I can't find them - do any PPRuners remember them - perhaps even have a copy? Or am I mis-remembering?

Pretty sure there was one like that. There was a Jaguar on its back with the gear down poster about wake turbulence which is not in this archive. My favourite one is on there though. The Aviation Establishment (School of Aircraft Handling Sudden Death Finals).

I did tours in both HQ RAFSC Flight Safety and MOD IFS (RAF). There were many different "Eject In Time" posters for specific aircraft types and accompanying articles in Air Clues.

My favourite Flight Safety poster was the one that was overprinted onto the Athena poster of the lady at the tennis ner, apparently sans nether garments. The Overprint in bold capitals read:"DON'T ASSUME - CHECK11"

The one I want to see is the "Rings on his fingers, bells on his toes, he will bring disaster wherever he goes!" Looked like on of my JTs at the time that liked his bling.

I will agree with this one. A lesson my wife talked me out of much to my disaster. Very lucky to keep the digit and the ring is still cut in two.

Certainly a recent topic of conversation.

There certainly was an 'Eject in time' poster which was, IIRC, produced by, or at the suggestion of, Sqn Ldr Wally Black, OC 2 Squadron at RAF Valley around 1972

Cheers Dave (hope you are well), and thanks to all who replied. If anyone knows where I might get a copy, or photo of a copy of the poster, I'd be delighted to hear about it!
