Leg restraint system for ejection seats

A leg restraint system for an ejection seat may comprise a leg restraint and a reel assembly coupled to the leg restraint. The reel assembly may include a drum configured to rotate about an axis. The leg restraint may be configured to wind around the drum in response to rotation of the drum about the axis.

SPACE SAVER FITTING FOR EJECTION SEAT CATAPULT

A fitting for use with an ejection seat system of an aircraft includes a fitting bar configured to extend across a top of a catapult of the ejection seat system and defining an angled slot configured to receive a portion of a gas port of the ejection seat system. The fitting further includes a first leg and a second leg coupled to and extending away from the fitting bar and configured to be pivotally coupled to a smokestack structure of the ejection seat system.
