    My bad. The pilot is probably already on R & R somewhere sunny, sipping margaritas, and reminiscing about the little whoopsie- doodle.

      Think positively, ejecting doesn’t mean the pilot survived. Historically around 10% pilots die. That number is lower for newer aircraft, but not for the old Soviet ones.
