    Ejection seat flaps

    Note the flaps are not high on the seat.

    It is a standard ESCAPAC ejection seat without the seat cushion and survival kit installed in the seat pan thus making them look high.

    The YF-16's used the ESCAPAC seats.
    The FSD F-16's switched to the Stanley Stencil seats
    Production F-16's switched to the MacDac ACES II seats.
