Greetings,

Just wondered if you ever get the chance to jump out of a plane during flight school? :D Seems like every pilot should be able to parachute themselves to safety if "everything else fails".

Thanks!

No need to be an ******* there, PP. He's just asking a question.

The answer is no, you don't get to jump out of an airplane...or atleast you should hope you don't have to. If you want to try that out, go take a skydiving trip. A lot of pilots you may notice have an aversion to jumping out of perfectly good airplanes.

In API you will do redneck parasailing (Dragged w/ a parachute from the back of an F-150) but that's as close as you get. Unless of course you actually have to hit the silk at some point.

haha... redneck parasailing thats hillarious. Too bad I'm not a redneck.

By the way: I don't know if I would trust being pulled by an F-150, do you think they'd let me get a silverado?? :D
