Belgian F-16 pilot rescued from power line after emergency ejection

Double Ejection

Re: Pilot now shorter and one chance left

The F-111 cockpit with all of it's avionics ejected from the aircraft with both pilots. There were a few survivable ejections, those that did not survive was due to the ejection sequence being initiated in an out of envelope configuration. There were several RAAF fatalities in the F-111, of those only one was initiated when the aircraft was in an unsurvivable attitude due to a bird strike on the windshield at low altitude.
