    Hi Guys

    Did courses on bang seats in the 80’s
    From what I can remember regarding the zero speed/zero height scenario the seats are powered biassed slightly left or right in the case of a two seater one go’s one way the other the other way.If I rememeber correctly this seperated the crew by around 100m from the ‘burning aircraft’.
    The 90mph min speed on the earlier models may be to give the parachute chance to fill and slow the descent but this is just a guess.

    Cheers

    Hi Guys
    First post so bear with me.
    Difficult one this isn’t it.
    I can see why people are concerned about the images but at the same time from being on for a couple of weeks I would like to think that the vast majority of people on here are intelligent, not naive and in the majority not macabre.
    Nobody wants to see this sort of thing but it does remind us what really was happening out there (I don’t think most of us need reminding)
    On a tangent I felt uncomfortable watching RR299 on youtube but reading comments and links to AAIB at least I could understand

    Respect All

    Jon
