The article deals with the causes of ejections of crew members in military jet fighter, fighter‐trainer and trainer aircraft in the service of Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic from 1948 until the end of 2016. It presents a list of ejection causes by aircraft types on a timeline as well as historical and technical contexts, facts and development trends of these causes. Importantly, the role of the human factor in the causes of aircraft emergency events associated with ejections is analyzed. The study is accompanied by a unique overview of reference and still accessible information sources on the subject.
