"TJ" wrote in message ... "weremoth" wrote in message ... I've been told if you were to eject from an English Electric/BAC Lightning, the instrument panel could take your kneecaps off. Can anyone confirm or deny? No. Pilots were anatomically measured to see if they met the paramaters for various aircraft types. There was sufficient clearance for kneecaps as you can see from the following images. http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co...l/bru98518.jpg http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co...l/bru98521.jpg http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co...l/msl97107.jpg TJ
