Default Does a Baron 58 have an ejection seat?

I note in the simulation of the Baron in MSFS (Dreamfleet's
simulation), there's a button on the left side of the pilot, part of
several rows of buttons, marked "Ejection seat." I don't know if this
is a joke on the part of the developers, or something that really
exists in the aircraft. In the latter case, the only reason I can
think of for it would be if it were something that existed on a
military version of the aircraft. Is it really there?

My Baron is equipped with the optional Aces II ejection seats in the front
only. Rather than a ballistic parachute, Beechcraft offered the option of
ejection seats. They are zero-zero (will deploy a chute at zero altitude and
zero forward velocity).

The seat pan has a deployable survival kit as well as a self inflating raft.

The Beechjet has a StarTrek matter-transporter that will
beam the passengers and cargo safely to the ground at the
nearest discrete place, then it switches to phaser mode and
destroys the aircraft so there is no dangerous debris
falling on any city.

Careful there Jim....we don't want him ejaculating himself from the
simulator! :-)

LOL

BTW, matter transmission as done on StarTrek can NEVER
happen and just because of the Heisenberg (sp) effect.
Einstein's equation works both ways, E=MC^2 means that to
create matter with a weight equal to a person would require
the energy of several thousand atomic bombs, under full
control and without destruction of the mechanism.

Damn you. You just destroyed my dream of never having to sit in traffic
again.

Hell Jim, I'm still trying to deal with Scrodenger's cat and after dinner I
have to find why Fermat outsmarted both me and the Pythagoreans with the 3rd
exponent!!! :-)))

Obviously you meant to add "using current known technologies!"

The only reason it works on Star Trek is because of the discovery of
controlled matter-antimatter reactions. In the early days it was
difficult and dangerous, but dilithium crystals found on other planets
made control of the reaction much easier. The transporter was
impossible without the crystals, as was related technology, including
the communicators. The communicators did not use radio waves as we know
them, but were really miniature transporters that moved data. The
phasers, including the hand weapons, also used this technology.
Everything in Star Trek, from the spacecraft engines to shields,
cloaking devices, communicators, the Tricorder and Dr. McCoy's
examination pen were all variants of the same fundamental device. Even
the Holodeck is dependent on it.

Jim,

and just because of the Heisenberg (sp) effect.


Ah, you're wrong. The Heisenberg correlator does away with that
problem. Part of any decent beaming device. The technical advisors to
Star Trek were asked once in an interview how the correlator works.
Answer: "Thanks, just fine."
