halo wouldn't seem to allow a great deal of gliding potential as you 
fall rather quickly down to minimum altitude in 4 to 6 minutes depending 
on your jump altitude.  If you want to be able to cover ground a haho 
jump is the way to go.  Canadian pathfinders routinely get 50 km down 
range before touching down.
