FAA Investigation Launched Over Skydiving Sex Stunt
It sounds like the FAA is trying to keep the definition of “flying” in the air close to its original meaning:
Federal Aviation Administration officials are investigating a videotaped sex stunt performed by two skydivers in California. The FAA is concerned that the pre-jump sex may have created an unsafe situation by bumping or otherwise distracting the pilot.
Skydiving instructor Alex Torres, who moonlights in pornographic films, and a woman reportedly had sex in a plane while listening to a Katy Perry song before jumping out of the plane in tandem and continuing the act in the air.

McGregor wouldn’t speculate on the outcome of the case.
“Every case is different and it would be inappropriate for me to comment on any possible outcome in this situation,” he said.
Torres has been fired from his job at Skydive Taft in Kern County, Calif., the Associated Press reported. His partner in the stunt, identified as Hope Howell, is a receptionist at the company.

My god, there are some skanky people in this world.
So does that mean they’re in the half mile high club?
Was this a carnal tandem jump?
The FAA really has nothing better to do than investigate this?
After several months of intense scrutiny and multiple showings of the complete, unedited video the FAA will conclude that there was absolutely no evidence of any equipment or materials required to make an “underwear bomb” or, for that matter, any other type of
STDIED.Additionally they found no box cutters, shampoo, hand soap or roll-on deodorants.
Kern County morals ordinances may come into play here.
I’m surprised the FAA is investigating the incident. SkyJiving outfits break so many rules it’s pathetic and the FAA rarely does anything. Lack of funding I guess.
You could not have picked a more appropriate song, Joe.
Frank Sinatra:
“…Come fly with me …It’s perfect for a flying honeymoon…and don’t tell your Mama…”
However, someone told the FAA
they are going to have to check his immigration status!
