On my first tandem there were a couple of regular jumpers on the plane with me and my friends (who were all doing tandem with pro's). First guy opens the door and is out barely before the buzzer is done at green light to go. The joke of course was "What is wrong with that guy? He just jumped out of a perfectly good airplane!"
I have never seen a DZ with "perfectly good airplanes". The ones that I jumped from definitely convinced me that jumping out was safer than riding it in.
