NACES

". . . we were three ship and I was number 2 and in the touchdown. I ejected because the high crosswind hit me and the aircraft flipped to the left. I maintained control and when I went to take off the aircraft nose was 45 degrees from the RUNWAY heading so the aircraft departed the runway and in this time I ejected."
