Hey, everyone,
I tried looking, but it seems I'm either not searching in the right place, or this topic isn't one that comes up much in normal discussions:
Set Up
Only two characters are on a stealth-luxury plane: the pilot and the MC.
The pilot puts the plane on auto-pilot and goes to push the MC out of the plane. The MC is wearing the parachute and gear.
MC's Background in Skydiving
My MC has basic skydiving training. But he's backed out of numerous jumps thanks to altophobia. However, he has no choice in this particular jump -- he gets pushed out of the plane.
Problem
The MC needs to reach a monument in the city centre. Unfortunately, the city has been taken over by demons and much of it razed. Buildings still standing are melted shells of themselves and some still have their rooftop spiked railings. These are clustered together.
In the middle of the building targeted for landing, there's a huge hole that opens into the basement of the building.
Questions
Many thanks, everyone! (^_^)

Questions
- How likely is it for the MC to manoeuvre his way onto this roof and survive without severe injury?
- If this is not a feasible scenario, what would you suggest?
Many thanks, everyone! (^_^)

Further Information:
Genre
Urban fantasy with futuristic elements.
Rationale
- The ground is crawling with demons.
- Remaining rooftops are abandoned (since the demons under the new leadership don't think it worth patrolling the rooftops).
- Using a plane because the MC absolutely refuses to get into a helicopter (he would disable its flight capabilities by doing something stupid to the controls or fuselage (he doesn't know much about these things)).
- Wind, speed, altitude, etc., are all ideal. No smoke obscures anything, and if clouds are a bother, I can remove those.
- The plane is futuristic enough that circling on auto-pilot is flawless.
