Today is the 56th anniversary of my successful employment of the excellent Martin-Baker apparatus to escape from a doomed Jet Provost aircraft and subsequent descent to earth, albeit in a very ungainly way, in an Irvin parachute. This escape enabled me to enjoy a joyful 33 year subsequent career as an Royal Air Force pilot. I see from the website today that the current tally of lives saved is 7632. I was number 664 - doesn't time fly?
