Being able to control the bailing out process a little better would be good. Flying level, open the canopy on the 109 and have it be blown away in the wind. Undoing your harness then inverting the plane and just fall out of it.

Hartmann did it like this at the end of the war, He had 8 Mustangs on his tail and in a long struggle he avoided being shot down, then the fuel warning light came on and he had to ditch. Not enough fuel to land but that wasn't exactly something he dared to try even if he wanted to. He feared being shot in his chute, but the American pilots waved at him when they passed.
