ABSTRACT:
A harness fitting has a first member which is secured to the vest of a pilot while a second member is secured to a cockpit floor. The first member has vertical torso restraint straps attached thereto which limits the upward displacement of a pilot, relative to his seat, during normal flight. This results in minimizing injuries that might occur as a result of negative "G" conditions during which time the head of the pilot may be injured during contact with a canopy. Arm and leg restraints are connected to the fitting so that they become pulled in during pilot ejection, thereby reducing the possibility of limb injury.
