+pcpilot 181 Posted February 12, 2004 Glad he made it out ok. Thats a tough way to learn about ejection systems. Just out of curiosity, I wonder what version of the scooter it was? A-4E maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutchy 0 Posted February 12, 2004 Nesher, I let you know that it was today in a free newspaper in the Netherlands to read about the planecrash. (no picture) It was in a few lines and in a corner under a page. Maybe mine lines what I write now are longer. Salute Dutchy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
