Has anyone ever jumped out of a float plane?

Recommended Posts

I'm 250 out the door....but some of the best pilots I ever flew with were Alaskan pilots and helicopter logging pilots! So....I'm sure it could be done! With one of them pilots...tandem or fun jumper! The 5 years I worked up there I've called them in and the pacific can bring some nasty weather quick.....but they showed up with winds from the west at 50mph and 3 foot swells with a Beaver on floats!
just my 2 cents

I guess you haven't looked at my profile to see where I live.
You may be 250, but like I said; "Did you have 180 some odd pounds of quivering, frightful mass strapped to your chest?" And no I don't mean your belly.
The poster asked about tandems. If he can figure a way to exit the aircraft so that the tandem passenger doesn't kill the instructor or everyone else on the aircraft then the rest is easy.
