Re: Pilot now shorter and one chance left
Well, you're choosing to go up[0] while the plane is going forward[1], and you will lose forward speed the moment you're out of the cockpit. Which means that you have to be clear of the tail the moment it passes under[2] you, and preferably with some margin. If not you may well have a *much* shorter spine due to it being fragmented because of a collision with a bit of metal sticking up[3] at the back of the plane you just chose to get out of.
[0] relative to the plane. Might well be down relative to the earth.
[1] more or less.
[2] see [0]
[3] see [0] once more
