What does a Werewolf see while skydiving?

Seriously.

Say that my Garou goes skydiving...or to make this more exciting, say
his enemies shove him out of a hi-altitude plane without a parachute.
In desperation (or curiousity for the former example), he crosses over
into the Penumbra (I'm assuming the Wall is pretty thin up there?):
What does he see?

Is he still falling or can he just walk around on the Umbral clouds?
Or is he automatically on the "ground"? Do Moon Bridges go that high?
As a spirit being, could he just start flying around, or would he need
specific Gifts for that? Are there any kinds of Umbrood likely to be
encounted up there ("Cloud Dolphins", maybe)? Does he take damage for
crashing into the Umbral ground?

Hmmm, I wonder what the plane itself would look like from there...I
can imagine him looking over his shoulder and seeing a techno-organic
pterydactyl-like assemblege of Weaverstuff flapping away...

Dex,
also wondering the above for Changelings and the Near Dreaming...

The plane wouldn't exist unless its spirit was awakened. And yes, he keeps
falling.

At least, so said Ethan when I asked such questions on here before Umbra
Revised came out.

On the other hand, a desperate and paniced howl for help might actually
attract a spirit who could do something about that.

Just hope its a dumb one, or you'll be in spiritual debt for the rest of
your life.

I'm actually having fun thinking about this. How many penumbral denizens
does it take to save a free-falling Garou?

A pattern spider to weave a parachute.
A bane to to destroy the forest whose branches you would otherwise
impale yourself on.
A Wyld spirit to grow a nice soft swamp for you to land in.
And, of course, a Corax to tell everyone the embaressing story.

Better not be an asian cloud spirit. We all know the kind of gifts taught by
cloud and rain spirits. It would be less embarrassing to just hit the
ground.

Actually, the idea of Sky whales ala those from The Maxx is rather cool.
