The Sukhoi Su26/29/31 can be ordred with an SKS-94 ejection system. See here
for a picture of it in use:

A google seach for SKS-94 turns up several references.

Has anyone bought a commercial ejection seat for use on their homebuilt
aircraft? Is this even feasible? Thanks,

David

Interesting site . Maybe I missed it, but what about the harness? If
the system blows the seat and pilot up through the canopy on a pole,
fires a rocket to deploy the chute, and the filled chute yanks the
pilot off the seat, what's happened to the five-point harness?
