Soviet engines didn't exactly have an outstanding reputation but their ejection seats are really good. Go with your strengths I say.
At least the seat went upwards, unlike early 104's which tossed you out of the bottom of the aircraft.

Here is a good clip with some Soviet vertical landing mayhem.

The -36 looks like an atomic guppy.

I have to do some fact checking but I believe the -38 had an automatic eject feature in the event of engine failure in the low speed regime. That would be a bummer, approaching the ship, minding your own business and the next thing you know is you're munching on seaweed.

Just for fun and because someone else took the mosquito, I'm going with the Arado 234.

Volcanic ash can ruin your whole day. Not only does it abrade fan blades etc, it plugs cooling passages which in turn causes all sorts of havoc. It also can form a glass like deposit over surfaces, like fuel nozzles.

Ah, it's just a new U-Pull-It site. Need a lightly used solar array? $20 if you do the wrenching!

These particle control systems are essential in the sandbox. With the C-130's we used to see a 2% - 5% drop in power output after 6 months in theatre. The funny part is that a lot of turbine engines require some sort of internal cleaning while in service, and this is done by shooting a mild abrasive (walnut shells?) down the throat of the engine while it is running.

Hmmm, don't think so. Canadian coins don't have a significant amount of copper in them. They usually don't have "Vermont" on them either....

It was a very well mannered animal. I think a male might have been aggressive. The parents were watching but it happened fast. I had just noticed the dog moving every once in a while and observed long enough to see the child climb on the dog while it was lying down, then start pulling on ears. The dog slowly rolled over, dumping the child, stood up, and walked away. No growling, stiff posture or raised tail. Seemed to be a non event. Apparently the kid kept pursuing the dog and I just happened to see the final act.

My other sister's. It was a typical family gathering gaggle, so people were watching the kids. It just happened so quickly and with so little fuss on the part of the animal or the child, it was over before anybody could react.

I saw my sister's Great Dane (female) do that to an 8 month old that was annoying it. The child kept yanking on bits of the Dane it shouldn't have. The dog would stand up, walk away, and settle somewhere else . The baby would crawl over and start the whole process over again. Finally the dog, patience exhausted, picked up the child by the head, very gently, carried it to the other side of the house, placed the child on the floor and walked back to its original spot and curled up. Not a mark on the child who didn't even cry or act startled. The women were horrified, I was laughing, is there something wrong with that?
