I believe the delay getting back in the air was for Captain Chris Striklin to have some time after the mishap. Imagine yourself in an F-16, about to crash, get blasted out on a seat and end up horizontal (parachute to seat) looking at the ground from 100-200', and seeing your F-16 go down the runway in a ball of flames. Have I mentioned I can't wait till Saturday!  Hilton Add to that, the fact that ejection takes a tremendous toll on the human body. Some are never capable of high performance flight again. -- Jim in NC
