Some pics of the P-51 pilot bailing out here: http://forum.keypublishing.com/showt...=110391&page=3 (scroll down a bit)

It looks like the Skyraider wing hit the underside of the fuselage between the wing and tailplane (nearer the wing) and put a huge dent in it, perhaps damaging the control runs to the elevator and rudder. The BBC video shows the P-51 being almost knocked out of control by the force of the impact. The pilot's parachute deployed with only seconds to spare.
