That F-22 pilot looks like he's about 14. On a serious note, 182K for a canopy malfunction is far better than some other malfunction that could have resulted in loss of the airplane and/or pilot. In the old days (1950s especially) crashes of new fighters were common and many streets on Edwards AFB are named after dead test pilots.
