[RainbowManification]

C-130 rollin down the strip, airbourne daddy's gonna take a trip. Stand up, hook up shuffle to the door, jump on our and count to four.

[Infantry506th]

[renob151]

[dynmicpara]

We need to not waste time assembling on the ground after a jump.

LOL

"Tower to USAF aircraft, you appear to be leaking something from the aft section of your aircraft ..."

[Jager762]

No country jumped 'sim sticks' during WWII. The C47 dakota had the best exit method - but only had a single Paratrooper door on the port side...

[dynmicpara]

FALSE. We jumped sim sticks from the C-46 during Operation VARSITY in 1945--good thing we did! Fuel tanks were not self-sealing.

look at 1:38 to see sim sticks from C-46 in WW2

[101stAirborneVeteran]

Correct, and it got real interesting on D-Day when the plane I was in was hit and on fire.

[kiwitedferny]

I seem to remember the problem with simultaneous sticks off the back ramp was that the slipstream 'sucked' the two collums of jumpers in together. Increasing risk of entanglements. We had to 'stagger' the jumpers so that they didn't exit side by side.

[rgd82abn]

r u ok?

[Ecko35]

"Rare View" I just did two jumps today, 1 tomorrow, two more the day after...

[christianboy1487]

In other words, you are in jumpschool.

[martycamo]

Thats the 3RAR, not US Airborne.

[townclutz99]

"rare view" hell I just did this over Sicily DZ this morning

[jadet13]

make it longer

[dynmicpara]

Click on > button to stop video. Look at what's dangling outside the side jump doors. That clutter is static-lines and deployment bags slowing down closing the doors so the plane can exit at maximum speed and requires 2 Army Paras to not jump and pull the crap back inside.

[pfskribbles]

No, Safeties can jump, the loadmaster takes care of the deployment bags if the safeties jump

[dynmicpara]

This is a new development for me; are you SURE? the USAF LMs insist they need the safetey's help and in our FM we state that.

[Dav0070ismad]

@pfskribbles

Safeties? you mean Jumpmater or Instructor? they are rigged up with freefall gear.

[baconlara94]
