matblack, you could be pulling one's leg here but incase you're not; at 5000' most jets will have a cabin altitude above aerodrome level, will be at low power and it's unlikely that the exhaust (outflow) valve will be open and the idea is to pump air into the cabin to cause its level to decrease to be at aerodrome level by landing.
