Ejection Video
Reportedly a Canadian (NATO) Hawk?
Birdstrike, zoom and ejection. Great footage and very well done by the crew. Great CRM - in very limited time....listen for the 1st "prepare to abandon the aircraft". Basic HUD, but airfield is 1800ft AMSL and 237kts when they take the bird. Great training points to any backseat QFIs. http://www.big-boys.com/articles/abirdhitsplane.html |

If you look carefully, you can see the shadow on the ground of the seat leaving the aircraft.
|
I particularly like the way the jet recorded the PLB from the chap who left via the roof, before crashing!

And I like the Air Traffic "confirm you're ejecting to the North" - about a second after they've gone!

Daifly, I don't think that is quite what ATC says!
|
Sounds more like ATC says, "Confirm break out to the north?".
|
Sounds to me like;
A/C tells ATC "'C/S' Ejecting to the North, we have an engine failure." 8 Seconds later ATC asks "'C/S' Copy you break out to the North ?" Also, just before the aircraft hits the ground, it sounds as if a 'Space Invaders bonus points spaceship' has just appeared! :ok: SS |
What is suprising is the speed of the system (complaining colin or bitchin' betty) reaction after the bird goes into the engine. It is almost instananeous.
|
I like the positive vector the Instructor obtains before they jump out;) not!
|
Jim,
Even more impressive is that the stud is already saying, "OK, we have a T6NL", when bitchin' betty kicks in. Out of interest, I always thought that the aural warning system had a female voice because tests had shown pilots were more likely to respond to a female voice than a male voice. Is there any particular reason for the Hawk having a male version? |
From what I can make of it, having read the accident report (makes interesting reading!) the instructor had control for a couple of ccts at the end of the sortie, so the stude prob heard the thump, and/or saw the bird, looked straight in at the cwp and saw the T6NL in big red lights! The audio takes a couple of seconds to kick in to avoid setting it off for transient captions i believe, not sure what the delay is tho.... Interestingly the stude got a DCO for it as well, cause it was the end of the sortie!

As its built in Brough, I'm surprised it didn't say:"Aye Up! Yer donk's buggered lad!".

From another sad soul stuck in the sandpit, where "bigboys" and "fazed" are both inaccessible, a backup plea for some kind person to see if the vid can be hosted somewhere bedu-friendly?
