Your airborne training consists, appropriately enough, of jumping out of an airplane. Just step out of the door; your chute will deploy automatically. As you drift down to the ground, use your body weight to steer with the Left Stick, and look around with the Right Stick. This takes some getting used to, so use your training jumps to get accustomed to the process. Aim for the green smoke, which, now and throughout the game, marks safe landing zones, where you won't encounter enemy resistance immediately. If you need to slow your descent, you can flare your chute by holding A. Always do this when you're about to land, to ensure a soft landing. Make three jumps, aiming for the center of the bull's eye. When you're done, you can proceed to combat.
