From Russia with Love

Laughed my head off: you must read this.

Only in Russia would they play with military hardware like that.

I know this webpage
Another crazy thing :

English Russia Pilot Says “Love You”

I had the ban hammer ready with that topic title...

It's fun, but after seeing the photo of the ejection, I wonder what would happen to the second pilot if the first pilot ejects first...
OK, the shape let the flames go to the back a lot, but if you take that into accouont it looks as if the flames of the front seat could hit the position of the second seat.

In the F-16B the lead pilot ejection seat goes left and to the rear the other goes right and to the rear, this clear pilots from an eventual burning wreck during a zero-zero launch too and helps clear the tail on a moving launch

Didn't know about that. Thanks for sharing. Do you know if other aircraft have similar ejection techniques or is it specific to the Falcon?
