Ejection Seats

Hi all...

Well after doing a lot of soul searching and thinking (ow, my brain!) I've decided that my design skills are not yet up to par with those of some of my favorite designes, so I was thinking I would design parts for 1/32 and 1/72 kits that could be put into any of existing kits as aftermarket kits.

I was inspired by Ken's X-15 to start researching ejction seats as my first design offerings. I however have a problem.

I need help in finding some reference materials. The list of things I am looking for is below.
  • US ejection Seat 3 view drawings
  • Soviet/Russian ejection seat 3 view drawings
  • Lit of ejection seat model numbers and what aircraft they are flown on
  • lots of pictures

Thanks in advance for the help. assuming I can get these going well I would like to branch out into other aircraft interor ites, like maybe flight decks and cabins or airliners.
If I pull any of this off, I plan on either giving the away or selling them cheap here on ecardmodels.

Re: Ejection Seats

I think after market kits is a great idea.

For the interiors how about the grand stairs from the Titanic?

Cheers JTF
