Hey - now that looks like fun!
A colleague of mine was involved in a film (one of the Bond films, I think, but I forget which) where a skydiver jumped out of an aircraft. The aircraft then overtook the skydiver while he was in freefall, then slowed down to let the skydiver back in. It was done in a Pilatus PC6, by putting the propeller into reverse in order to slow the aircraft down enough to let the skydiver back in. Fascinating stuff!

Yea, the plane had an external speedbrake (read ballistic chute) on it though. This was on the Discovery channel show "Stunt Junkies."
