Default Amazing F-16 ejection photo

Just read about this.
Pilot ejected from 140 ft - just 8/10th's of a second before the F-16 hit the ground. He was basically uninjured. Amazing! Story and video from inside the cockpit is here: Strickland_C

There you are, bang on time with some negative dribble in one of your posts again.
Where are the spelling errors? Further, the thread is about a freaking photo, why on earth even comment about spelling?

Dribble? I Think that an English speaking website, especially one that appears to be from the U.K. ought to be able to spell (maneuver) manoeuvre properly. Perhaps it's an Amercan spelling?
