ABSTRACT:
A rocket catapult arrangement having an erector mechanism to move the roc catapult from an out-of-the-way prone position to an upright firing position immediately before launch. When employed as emergency escape means for a seat-occupant mass of a disabled aircraft, the arrangement prior to need for ejection, enables use of available space other than its upright firing position which usually is a sight obstacle for a pilot or an occupant of a rearwardly adjacent seat.
