Ahh but that is my specialty. I own over 30 ejection seats in my own
personal collection. I have done it since I was a kid, and the only thing I
really suck at is Packing ( or repacking) a parachute, and I have lots of
contacts who do just that.
And if you want to get serious, A DAMN PC-9 or TEXAS II itself is an
expensive , difficult thing to maintain...I CANT AFFORD ONE IN THE FIRST
PLACE!
But I'd sure like to........
