The thing no pilot ever wants to have to do: abandon their aircraft mid-flight

Somewhere over Southern China, a hit to a fuel line splashes AV-gas over the hot engine cylinders, resulting in an uncontrollable inferno. Threatening to engulf the entire airplane, and risking an explosion of the fuel tanks, the wolf has no choice but to abandon his bird. "Red Lead, getting to hot here! Hitting the silk!" he yells frantically over the radio before undoing his harnesses.
He jettisons the propeller blades which are flung clear by the momentum, as to not be minced by the J7's huge rearward facing propellers. A moment later he pops the canopy, sending into the deep blue sky.
Air rushing past him, he steps up on his seat, blasted by a nearly 500mph headwind. With a push he is flung clear of the doomed aircraft, mercifully passing between the two razor sharp tails, nor being sucked into the looming intakes above the fuselage. The wind causes his limbs to flail helplessly as he tumbles backwards through the smoke, before an instant later being snapped backwards as his drogue chute deploys, ripping his main chute from the parachute bag he had moments before been sitting on.
The whole ordeal lasting mere seconds, the wolf finds himself in an empty sky, with only the breeze and sound of his chute opening around him.....he was lucky this time.....

Just some practice that wasn't round things.....I'm rather rusty with planes since I've not done any for a long time, and wanted to try some more dynamic/actiony poses heh....think it came out decently, maybe one day I'll finish it proper.
