WAS
THE PILOT EJECTED

In as much as the driver of a car can be thrown out of a rolling wrecked
car, and be reported as ejected, the same musta' happened for this pilot,
but obviously without an ejection seat.

So, from our point of view, it is an inaccurate description, but it would be
totally accurate to the majority of the public.

Richard's suggested change to the text (from "ejected" to "was ejected")
fits LD's description of what happened perfectly and matches your
analysis.

I've listened to his 11-minute interview several times. He speaks
as if he didn't have to do anything to get out of the plane.
Once he released his seat belts, he seems to have been thrown out
without any effort on his part.
