Tech. Sgt. Justin Fromm, 56th Component Maintenance Squadron egress systems craftsman, demonstrates how to pull the handle of an F-35A Lightning II ejection seat May 29, 2020, at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz. The F-35 and F-16 Fighting Falcon each have a D-ring handle between the pilot’s knees which is pulled in an emergency, triggering a series of gaseous explosions that jettisons the canopy and propels the pilot out of the aircraft. Egress specialists perform inspections and maintenance on F-35 and F-16 Fighting Falcon canopies and egress systems to ensure the components function properly in flight and during emergencies.
