In real life, you would probably exceed 250 MPH, but slow to 120 MPH closer to the ground. This is called "terminal velocity", the velocity at which your drag, bouyancy, and F=mg sum to zero. But this changes as the air density increases. If you want to ignore the atmosphere (like skydiving on the Moon), Then V=gmt; and S=1/2gmt2; S=33000; gm=5.31 ft sec-2; Solve for V
