I've mentioned this elsewhere, but think it deserves more attention than it got (none).
Point 1: We've been told we can bail out of a Galaxy in the event that the pilot lags out. I'm assuming that people could jump at other times as well.
Point 2: No falling damage. I don't remember the name of the gizmo, but all armors are equiped with it. Jumping out isn't going to kill anyone.
This means that you could have a galaxy full of people fly over a base, and have everyone bail out, paratrooper style.
The pilot could then land, hop in whatever vehicle was in the hold, and come join the party.
No need to wait for a landing, just yell GERONIMO, and off you go. The Galaxy could then land quite close to the base (in plain view), on the grounds that the defenders will be busy with other things... like that psycho up there spamming away with a grenade launcher as he floats down.
I'd think you'd want to drop relatively close to the ground though... get you some cover that much faster.
