OK, let us suppose all airliners are equipped with ejection seats -
For pilots and for passengers -
And this is for all types of airplanes, not for 747 only... right...?

Shall we say, 1 minute notice needed for people to comply for order to eject...?
When do passengers "know" they are about to crash...?

(1) Crash on takeoff -
No time to eject, because crash occurs seconds after liftoff from runway -

(2) During cruise -
With a bomb exploding on board... no time to eject - immediate explosion -
Same with a missile - no time to eject - immediate explosion -

(3) During climb or descent -
Airplane hits a mountain or collides with other airplane -
No time to eject - immediate crash -

(4) Crash during landing -
Again the airplane lands, everything looks good... but crashes - no time to eject -

So, what are ejection seats good for...?
Each seat would weigh - say 200 kilos extra weight -
Passengers would need to be briefed how to use ejection seat -

So tell me when you have the time to exit the airplane, or eject...?

Skipper, I thought you were turning 71 this year?

Anyway, a lot of places make you wait until your 18. SOME places allow you to go at 16, BUT with parental permission. I would suggest looking up info about your local drop zones to find the age.

But like I said, if the drop zones near you allow you to go at 16-17 with parental permission, you better hope your mom and dad don't say "no!!" like mine did.

Do all A380 Emirates flights have the new black widescreen tv in economy? Please help out i cant find these answers anywhere?

A380-800 FLIGHTS that go 8 or 14 hours

In practical considerations, the Air Force will not select any fighter pilot with vision inferior to 20/20 - Keep on dreaming...

The Air Force has sufficient number of candidates with excellent vision -

whatever the airline happens to be paying for someone with enough experience to be eligible to fly one of them

you don't get paid on the basis of what aircraft you fly
