America's Army : How the heck do you parachute?

I got that new patch and tried about 10 times to jump out the plane, but it doesn't work regarldess of what I do. I got a nice landing from the tower, but I just cant do the plane.

I jump, get to the circle, look forward (which I assume is 90 degrees) and press E. Sometimes I land and it sounds well but I still fail. Other times I break bones (fail) and others it's noisy and fails. Is there a simple way to get this to work?

Here's the method I read elsewhere that works well: look forward until just before you hit the ground, hit "E" and move your mouse left or right as if you were turning.

Took me like 50 trys. And Ive done it in real life.
The new maps are worth it though, the ambush at Ranger school is ungodly sweet. Wide open spaces with hills and three checkpoints. All skill. Im giddy.

I still havent done the jump. And if Miles = plugged gun, I never play those since they are pathetic.

Yeah the miles sucks but from what little Ive played so far the strategy needed for that Ambush map is gonna be sweet. Bridge is still my favorite as well but I can see getting into all the nooks and crannies of that super big ambush map, miles and all.

Swamp seems like HQ Raid II though.
