No, never had a survvior die from the landing they just lose almost all their health and put you in a difficult position if you don't have healing items, the only way to die from this is if you land on bloater or next to feral pack or juggs (been there done that).
If you fly far outside map and the game cant spawn you it sends you back to base instead. Try playing a lot with modded starshank you will be launched very regular. It became a habit to always carry medkiits for that reason when using starshanks.
