Dude was on the ball enough to identify and attack all the people on the plane and figure out how to disable it, so I'd expect "send the person I want to protect to her death in a fiery crash" might not be the option he'd go for. If he'd been trying to get her into the same "hell" as he was occupying so he could hug her and squeeze her and call her George, it would have made a lot more sense.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Kill the power, get into the cage, grab the girl, slip into the other dimension with her, kill the rest. As whacked out plans go, I've seen worse.

If he'd shown any ability to take people into the other dimension with him up to that point, I'd believe that was a plan that might work.

Zap2it tells me it's episode 5:
Chan Ho Yin (Louis Ozawa Changchien) is a Hong Kong street magician who dreams of becoming something more. He reveals his secret pyrokinetic ability to a "girl in a flower dress" named Raina (Ruth Negga) who kidnaps him and then promises him fame in exchange for running a few tests on his powers. Upon being informed of Chan's abduction by his handler, S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Quan Chen (Tzi Ma), the S.H.I.E.L.D. team attempts to trace his whereabouts. They find that it was the Rising Tide who leaked the information that led to his capture and the blame falls to Skye. She protests her innocence and believes she knows another hacker who could have released the info. They head to Austin, Texas where it is revealed that Skye has a relationship with said hacker Miles Lydon (Austin Nichols). They are both led back to the Bus in handcuffs while the team flies to Hong Kong to rescue Chan. Chan discovers his captors, who are associated with Project Centipede, are injecting him with Extremis which increases the strength of his flame powers. He becomes Scorch.

Oh, good, there's currently three inches of snow in the parking lot and it's still snowing, and I didn't want to worry about getting home in time for the start of the show. It's a Snowpocalypse (Minor) Miracle!

I could have sworn my DVR had it set as a new episode last night when I checked. Maybe they switched the epsiodes around.
