This famous picture of a low level ejection from an English Electric Lightning would have to be in the top 5 of incredible aviation images. Simply amazing. What would be your number one? . The story goes that the test pilot flying - George Baird - was carrying out a demonstration flight when there was a fire in the aircraft's reheat zone. Un-burnt fuel in the rear fuselage had been ignited by a small crack in the jet pipe and had weakened the tailplane actuator anchorage. This weakened the tailplane control system which failed with the aircraft at 100 feet on final approach. Fortunately the nose pitched up, giving George time to eject. He came down through a greenhouse roof, breaking both legs and right thigh. He was unconscious due to the impact of landing and was woken by jets of cold water from the greenhouse's sprinkler system. He later recovered to resume his flying career. Hats off George .🤙😎. . www.iloveahangar.com 🤙😎 . 🛩CUSTOM REQUESTS AVAILABLE ⚒ . www.iloveahangar.com 👍 #instagramaviation #aviationgeek #airforce #raf #aviation_lovers #aircraftlovers #englishelectriclightning #ejectionseat #testpilot #perfecttiming #aviationhistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CA2qySKBzuo/?igshid=1l2k4xley9eor
