Please explain Brett.
Well, you can eject in-envelope, or out of envelope. It has to do with airspeeds, attitude (bank angle, etc), and altitude. If you're 90 degrees nose down and eject at 500 Ft (out of envelope), you're not going to make it, but if you were straight and level at 500 Ft (in-envelope), you probably will. Now, just because you're out of envelope doesn't necessarily mean you're doomed, but your chances won't be good. Case in point, recent Prowler mishap on a low level experienced a catastrophic engine failure/loss of control. By the time the pilot's seat fired, the jet was <300 Ft and 90 degrees AOB. That's right on the edge of the envelope, but the pilot made it w/o injury.

It's a function of all the radiation. It causes the space-time continuum to reverse back upon itself, hence the ECMO-centric nature of the Prowler.

I just knew there was something unnatural about that whole deal, Brett . . . thanks for clearing it up for the new guy.
...just checked my jacket today, and sure enough, the doc drew a line through and initials next to my prowler anthro restiction... i am no longer anthro'd out. I am 73" 200lb of pimp. personally, i had always thought it was my butt-to-knee length that had always gotten me restricted... guess not anymore!
