Dave Haggas Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Bit of an odd request this one! Ive just obtained a Martin Baker MK 9D2 ejection seat that came out of the back seat of a two seat Harrier T4.I have been after one for about 3 yrs,so quite pleased at the moment! Problem is it is missing a few parts.Does anybody know anyboby who may have this sort of thing? I have a couple of freinds in the RAF who are on the case. Can anyone help me?It is basically a resto project to keep me occupied...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 1: Buy the cheapest car you can find, preferably something with boy racer appeal like an XR2. 2: Fit small but very sharp spikes on the interior ceiling over the driver's seat. 3: Replace said driver's seat with ejector seat and wire into ignition. 4: Leave XR2 in a dark car park overnight with keys in ignition, park nearby and observe. 5: Clean bloody remains of car thieving a**ehole off the inside and repeat.
