And it’s a pretty impressive ejection system. As an Instapundit reader notes,
“The first photo in the sequence illustrates how miraculous technology is getting – in this case in the form of the 0-0 ejection seat. The canopy is not even out of frame yet, and the seat has already oriented its passenger vertically, despite having fired out of a cockpit *pointed at the ground*.”

Speaking of airshows, the world's biggest begins today in here Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Always worth the trip, I try to go every year. It's heavy on WWII warbirds and experimental aircraft.
