Sounds like a Turkey shoot, or Quail hunt...I would not want to be flying around in a set of wings with someone close with a 12gauge loaded with buckshot. I say move on to another idea.

Do turkeys fly in at 220 mph?

If your concern is ground fire, this sounds better than a parachute.

You hunt Quail with buckshot?

Your reasoning is all askew. Zooming in at 220 and chuting in at 20-35 at the last minute is a helluva lot less of a turkey shoot than the previous method of floating in at 20-35 alone.

With this system, the dropper's most vulnerable moments are still going to be while chuting in, but that time is now greatly minimized. This is huge progress.
