The canopy did rely on air flow to get it clear but two guys in a hurry could easily find enough energy to push it over the side. Here's 569 at Butterworth with the canopy having been jettisond at a standstill. Left side brakes were seized on. Oops - got it wrong - it seems the canopy was jettised with air speed and then carried to where it's lying.
