You're an experienced high performance test pilot. You are putting a 25 million dollar prototype through its paces. This machine, like no other, has the potential to revolutionize air and ultimately space travel. But suddenly, something goes awry. The breakup of the aircraft is imminent. You've got about 10 seconds.

What do you do?

  1. Hit the eject and parachute down, knowing that the information you can report back to the designers will be crucial to understanding a fundamental technical flaw you've discovered in the structural design. By living to fly another day you will be able to bring your one of a kind experience and training with this particular model to bear in subsequent tests.

  2. Elect to remain and attempt to save the aircraft. (There are 10 seconds, after all.)
