Senior Airman Christopher Beitia, 22nd Special Tactics Squadron combat controller spots his landing after his static line jump from a C-17 Globemaster III above McChord Field, Feb. 12, 2014 at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash. Static line jumpers have limited maneuverability during their drop, so they must rely on the aircraft to drop them as close as possible to the landing zone. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.
