I know the kids uncle. He at one point held the record for an emergency ejection at the highest altitude. He may still own it. I’m pulling for the kid.

The SR-71 ejection was the highest speed ejection at over Mach 3 from what I recall reading. I don’t know how I feel about telling other people’s “war stories” but since it’s public record.

Amazing story. I was wrong about highest ejection. It was highest ejection in an F/A-18A at the time. Not overall.
