hi-speed ejections
My son was asking me about ejecting from jet aircraft. He's 8, and
he's convinced that no matter how fast an airplane is going, it's possible to eject. I said I didn't think that the guy who was flying the MiG-25 at Mach 3+ was able to eject from his aircraft with the runaway engines (if that's what was happening), and that the SR-71 isn't really something you can safely eject from at max speed and altitude. Any knowledgeable remarks I can pass along to him?
