I expect some other nit-picker has already said but the point of a free falling parachutist forming the D, arching his back extending his arms and trailing his parted legs, is to form a stable configuration that will allow him to see the ground, and when he pulls his release cord, have the chute deploy behind him into the slipstream minimising the possibility of him getting caught up in the cords or chute and fouling the thing or injuring himself. The parachutist from the Stuka should be stable in the horizontal (he can rotate), not tumbling, as he falls.
Not likely the pilot should spin even more. There was no such thing like halo parajump training. Look how they spin!
