Offering themselves to an experiment to find out how quickly a passenger plane could be emptied, ten U.S. army fliers recently leaped from a 16-passenger Ford transport plane in 8 1-5 seconds and all landed safely. The remarkable pictures above show the men leaping from the plane at an altitude of 200 feet and floating to earth, looking like a large ice cream cone drifting through the air. The flyers are shown at the top. The ten parachutos are all visible In the pleture below.
