FEEDBACK
Dear Mr Bennet:

Thank you for your mail. At the "cc" box you will find the email of my good
friend Pedro Uhart, a former Chilean Air Force pilot who ejected from a Hunter
in a Martin Baker at an almost supersonic speed, getting severe injuries.
Luckily, he not only survived but he could continue flying unrestricted. His
student was less lucky as he was killed at ground contact. I have talked him
about your project and he is prepared to help you out. I understand that he
knows more pilots that have ejected. I suggest you contact him.

Good luck with your research.

Yours

Jozsef Szita
