Probably a stupid question

Ok, I know you can use those orbital drop pods or whatever to land anywhere, as long as it is outside of a enemy base's sphere of influence.

Does your droppod actually drop or do you just *appear* where it was supposed to of landed?

If it does drop, its it attackable? I'd assume so, but I'd think it would be hard to hit. However, if it is- can you bail? I know you can bail on the dropships and transports and stuff.

Now when you are in free fall (assuming you can bail), before your kinetic dampeners (kds) kick in, can you control your fall, or do you drop like a frikkin rock straight down? How high do your kds kick in?

The point is, what is to stop me from preforming a HALO jump all day long. Spawn and use the droppod, drop just outside of a soi, bail at high alt. and then control my body to land inside an enemy base?

Also, I know someone else asked this, but I can't find the thread - What is maximum altitude? Is there a ceiling? If so, apx how high is it 10,000 feet (not that high), or even higher?

Thanks
