I was myself thinking that they should place ejection seats in these aircraft, we have lost many good pilots due to MF-17 Mushak accidents, the Martin Baker Zero-Zero ejection seats will work in them.

I was myself thinking that they should place ejection seats in these aircraft, we have lost many good pilots due to MF-17 Mushak accidents, the Martin Baker Zero-Zero ejection seats will work in them.

High cost E seats are never put into low tech aircraft like Cessna, or Mushak. These are piston engine powered aircraft, and all such categories of planes are designed to glide safely to some distance and may make a perfect landing with power off, if suitably handled by pilot.
I remember about 4-5 years back, i read in a newspaper that Mushak planes are commercially offered by Aeronautical complex at a price of Rs 6 Million. I think a single MB seat must cost close to 1 M $ (8 crore rs). the cockpit of Mushak is small, and 2 seats cannot be accommodated side by side. besides it will considerably increase the weight of aircraft which a 200 horsepower engine cannot lift.
