Implications of Advanced Technologies for Air and Spacecraft Escape

Abstract

This Symposium addressed the latest technological advances in all areas which affect overall escape system performance and capabilities. Escapes from hypersonic vehicles and spacecraft were also considered. Partial contents: Development of acceleration exposure limits for advanced escape systems; Development of an ejection seat specification for a new fighter aircraft; Escape system research at RAE; Fighter escape systems -- The next step forward; Potential role of avionics in escape systems; Ejection seat training of jet pilots and weapons system officers at the German Air Force School of Aviation Medicine; The USAF Advanced Dynamic Anthropomorphic Manikin -- ADAM; Windblast protection for advanced ejection seats; Controllable propulsion for escape systems control; Spacecraft crew escape.
