Not to mention the added bonus of nice views of unusual aircraft...

Wow, that's an incredible (ly rare?) video... I especially liked seeing the Russian A-20 and B-25 towards the end. They really went all out having the guys actually bail out instead of just diagramming it!

I hope that SoW will be able to mimic how violent these bailouts look after leaving the plane... (tumbling and such before opening the chute)
