Operational and Ejection Emergency Procedures
(4) If aircraft is descending out of control, eject
by 10,000 ft AGL. If the aircraft is
descending under control, do not delay
ejection below 2,000 ft AGL.
WARNING: Do not delay ejection if the
aircraft is nosedown and cannot be
leveled.
f.
High altitude ejection (above 18,000 ft)
(1) As in low altitude ejection, climb to slow
aircraft to safer speed, improve ejection
seat trajectory, and provide more altitude, if
desirable
NOTE: If aircraft is controllable and not on
fire (i.e., after engine fire with engine shut
down and fire out), consider descending to
a lower altitude prior to ejection.
(2) After high altitude ejection, seat and pilot
free-fall to 18,000 ft, at which time seat/
man separation occurs and parachute
deploys
NOTE: Manual seat/man separation may
be accomplished by pulling the emergency
restraint release handle on the right side of
the seat bucket.
g.
Over-water ejection
(1) Inflate LPU, and snap lobes together,
primary mode of LPU inflation - manual
(beaded handle), automatic mode (only a
backup)
WARNING: Failure to snap waist lobes
before water entry may result in face-
down flotation.
