ABSTRACT:
When the pilot seated at the front of a high-performance two-seater aircraft equipped with a forwardly-plunging transparent canopy transparency, wants to bail out on his ejection seat, he triggers a two-period pyrotechnical sequence; first, he cuts out a well-bounded fragment or dome located towards the rear of the canopy and right above his head on the seat ejection axis; and only then, upon a second period, he renders frangible the forwardly-plunging front portion of the canopy located above his knees which, at this instant, reach its level and smash it to pieces.
