Almost no planes in the world have ejection seats that will save (your sorry butt) while the plane is on the ground. But the U2 spyplane does. Sadly, you need to take your cyanide pill once you land. . . Oh, a bit of ejection trivia.

However, the picture was an up close which I felt it didn't show the rocket powered chair and this one did. Where this story originate shows a Pilatus PC-7.

The plane in the picture is not one. It's a Sukhoi Su30, I think. They're similar in that both of them fly and have ejector-seats. That's all.

They trained me how to use the ejection seat. Actually a half-day course. The Chief (senior NCO in charge) told me two things. First, the pilot will say "EJECT!" three times only. Only, because on the third "eject" he would be gone from the plane. The second thing he told me was that if I ejected without the pilot's command, he would turn the jet around and cut through the parachute. By "accident". . .
