Ejection Seat In Action

In aircraft, an ejection seat is a system designed to rescue the pilot or other crew of an aircraft (usually military) in an emergency. In most designs, the seat is propelled out of the aircraft by an explosive charge or rocket motor, carrying the pilot with it. The concept of an eject-able escape capsule has also been tried. 
Once clear of the aircraft, the ejection seat deploys a parachute. Ejection seats are common on certain types of military aircraft. The purpose of an ejection seat is pilot survival and it looks only slightly more appealing than going down with the plane.
Collected here is images of pilot ejecting for safety from their falling aircraft. While ejecting is the last thing any pilot want to do, but there will be time when pilot need to do what he/she trained to do. Some of the images are quite discomfort to me as clearly the aircraft plunging to crowd. This is why I rarely go to air shows.
