OK, lets explain this a little more to this non pilot and non jumper.
Seems to me that logic dictates that if the divers are all trying to land
at the airport, why would the jump plane try to get there around that
same time?
How long does it take for the divers to reach ground? 2 minutes? 4
minutes? Surely not much more than that. Why would the plane not descend
at a pace to place them in the pattern after the jumpers had cleared the
area? Does the 3-5 minutes flying time the plane saves by trying to beat
the jumpers seem significant?
I would appreciate any responders remembering that I am not a pilot, nor
a jumper. Answers with some supporting details would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hmmmm.... video guy, looking for some gory details?
I don't know you, Mr. Springer, and as far as I know, you don't know me
either. But, as this is the second time you have responded to one of my
posts with comments that are neither constructive or useful, but simply
criptic, snide and rude, I will consider you to be someone who has little of
value to add to any discussion.
I fail to see where any of my post indicates even the remotest interest in
gory details. As someone who was unfamiliar with the sport of skydiving, I
asked what I considered to be valid questions.
Mr. Springer, or whatever your name really is, there is no need for you to
respond. I have decided to give your posts the consideration they deserve.
Regards,
GWK
