The US Air Force is preparing to lift the lower wight limit for pilots to fly the F-35 aircraft in April. The regulations and tests on the F-35 ejection seat and helmet are almost completed. After the final test in March, US Air Force engineers and airworthiness experts will prepare a final report. The F-35's US16E model ejection seat manufacturer Martin-Baker will press ahead to certifying a second ejection seat as a precaution against potential risks.
