Outstanding picture! I had not seen the event from this angle I think it must have been taken from the control tower at Mountain Home AFB. I'm really glad he made it out. While the cause has been determined as a Pilot error he really had his act together to recgonize his error and save his live. I believe that it was determined he could not have pulled out prior to ground impact. from what i saw from the side shot of this event it would have been mighty close one way or the other.
Ejecting from an airplne is like attempting sucide to keep from dieing.
