ejection is not an option except in case of severe distress. new flight suits and seats are cheap by comparison.

CDI "Center For Defense Information" was during the 1980s a Soviet-line front organization. It has always opposed every US weapons system, and still does.

I don't know who's behind them now that their Soviet patron and lord is paws up.

We'd still be loading muskets by the muzzle, saing wooden ships, and wouldn't have none of them newfangled flying machines, if CDI had its way.

d.o.l.
