I shot some footage from the viewpoint of passenger for a jump flight in our C-47 "Boogie Baby". This doesn't give a complete view of all you would see (the video camera never does), but hopefully it gives you a taste. This is a fantastic opportunity to ride in a great warbird, see a WWII style static line parachute jump, and support our non-profit organization which preserves this great aircraft and the memory of WWII veterans.
