Just like indian Airforce can Shoot down Mi-17 in confusion, People can confuse an ejection seat coming down with a parachute as 2nd pilot.
But it is difficult to explain to indians here on this thread. How about ask the IAF what confusion looks like? And that was experienced Air defence controllers who got confused
And here we are talking about civilians who can differentiate easily. !
Again visually seeing something and seeing something on a radar page is different. Then when an AF can't make its top pilots fly loops I guess that is the logic they use? Yeah sure. people seeing a person and describing them on the ground and pointing out where they are is confusion, I know they have high quality Afeem. Well experienced if not the best Pak Pilot couldn't do a loop then that is serious confusion. Civvies are seeing people on the ground and can't differentiate? Describing them.
Besides the pilot dosen't jump out of the seat during ejection neither does the ejection seat come down on its own parachute. Drogue parachute is used to slow down the seat after ejecting. It remains with the main parachute.
That seat has a "man-seat separation system" that is a separate pyrotechnic device that unlatches the straps holding the pilot to the chair after clearing the aircraft. (The pilot wears the parachute, which nestles into a cavity in the back of the seat.) The manual exhorts the pilot to try to manually disengage from the seat, but says that the man-seat separation system can rarely be beaten. There's nothing in the manual that says the seat has a separate chute of its own.
This is from a US AF pilot
