I remembering hearing about a backseater ejecting from an F-4 that just touched down, while I was stationed at Ubon.....seems it just got too “hot” for him...there was some sort of damage to the aircraft and he was literally starting to cook....hit got two swings on the chute and then runway....I believe he broke an ankle....

I’m not familiar with it, but I would believe it. If the AC got stuck on full hot, it was an emergency procedure. Don’t remember what the steps were for dealing with it...
