(Newser) – Apparently there are no FAA rules against skydiving porn. After a skydiving instructor made a tape that redefined the Mile High Club, the agency investigated—and found that no regulations were broken, the AP reports. The film proves that the physical intimacy didn’t even distract the pilot, the FAA says. But the auteur, one Alex Torres, lost his job anyway.

The "no distraction" thing is a big part of pilot training. Instructors try all sorts of games to get you to lose your concentration, and then rap you over the head if you do. Although, none of them ever had sex next to me.
