Obviously gross negligence. There should've been road signs that said "AIRPLANE CROSSING."


ETA: I've jumped that aircraft in Europe. Their C-160 is like our C-130 with the most visible difference being that it has two larger engines rather than our four smaller ones.

From your perspective, I guess the pilot was good enough to get you to the drop-zone after that...

clever technique, using that speed bump to shed speed

The pilot was good enough to get me to the drop-zone before that. You didn't think I'd want to land with that pilot did you? There are some sound reasons for jumping out of a perfectly good airplane.

Of course, I should have known that's what he/she was doing. :facepalm:
