ABSTRACT:
A reclining or semi-supine aircrew ejection seat is provided with an ejection gun that is in the usual upwardly extending and rearwardly inclined attitude, and the seat is attached to the portion of the gun assembly that leaves the aircraft by a pivotal connection between the back of the seat and the upper part of the gun assembly portion. This allows the part of the seat that supports the user's back to extend forward away from the pivotal connection and the gun assembly. During the initial phase of ejection, the seat turns angularly, bringing the part of the seat that supports the user's back against the gun assembly.
