[simpits-tech] ACES-II ??

[John Miguez]

I forgot about the ground egress, Marc.  Funny, if I sit here and
mentally go through the abort and egress emergency procedure, my hand
remembers the handle.  It released the harness from the seat.

Hello John,

when sitting inside the F-4, on the right hand side of the seat there is
a
handle - this is used for the manual seat seperation. Well, I thought
that
the item pictured is that handle but had a look in my books, and with
the
F-4E it was black with thinner yellow stripes. So that particular handle
must be from just another a/c!

Cheers,

Marc
