My rule of thumb when being a spotter and things get hairy......Follow the pilot! He will rarely hit himself. Notice the spotter went away from the pilot and got nailed. The pilot usually knows which way to run and usually will finally dump the plane before it hits themself. Amazing really, I pilot will often stick it out as the plane goes barrelling throught the pits but if it is going to hit them they dump it. Makes you think about your priorities and the need for a plan BEFORE things go bad.
