Project 90, A study in 0-0 Ejection. Production Ejection Seat Zero-Zero Live Fire. This is the third seat, another Weber design, designed for the F-106 and was the final production seat used during the greater part of the F-106 career. It is a true zero-zero, “0-0” ejection profile and unlike most 0-0 seats of its day (or even of today) was live-tested in the 0-0 mode in late 1965 during Project 90. This new seat was not only designed to provide escape at zero-speed and zero-altitude, but also at all speeds below 600 knots. [Gordon Cress collection, Project 90 Test Engineer]

Jim Hall: The Skydiving Adventurer
“After serving as flight engineer on B-29’s in a combat tour over Japan, I went to school at the University of New Mexico and earned degrees in engineering and geology. During that time, I was working in construction… but my roommate was a parachutist who encouraged me to try.” Jim logged over 1,800 jumps, including this first zero-zero test (sitting on the ground, immobile) of a U.S. made ejection seat.
