The pilot cant do anything about gravity. What he can do is minimise the effect of the slipstream by slowing the aircraft to the slowest speed possible while avoiding a stall. This is easier said than done and requires skill on the part of the pilot. If the aircraft is too fast, the exit will be more difficult for the exiting jumpers, too slow and a dangerous stall could ensue.
In case I haven't understood the question here, the skydiver (airman) may change the EFFECT of gravity through changing air resistance by changes in body position, a spread out body position will create more drag and will slow the skydiver's (airman's) speed through the air.
They spread their arms and legs, so that the entire front of the body is in the wind flow. This decreases terminal velocity to the point that some people have survived falls without a parachute into soft ground or water. It can greatly extend the time (skydiving) between jumping and opening your parachute.

How does a skydiver us friction to slow down?
A skydiver can use friction by adjusting the position of their body to increase surface area and create more drag. By spreading out their limbs, the skydiver can encounter more air resistance, which helps to slow down their descent speed. This increase in friction allows the skydiver to control their rate of descent and eventually deploy their parachute safely.
Why do skydivers use parachutes scientifically speaking?
Skydivers use parachutes to slow down their freefall to a safe landing speed. The parachute creates drag, which counteracts the force of gravity pulling the skydiver towards the ground. This ultimately allows the skydiver to land safely without injury.
What kind of chute do skydiver's use?
a parachute
Can you use wings to slow down an object?
yes
When you are driving down a steep grade in a vehicle equipped with a standard transmission you should use a higher gear to help slow your vehicle down?
NO... you should use a lower gear if you want to slow down not higher.
How do you use capicitor in FAN?
The capacitor in a ceiling fan is a small fuse like device which helps the fan to slow down or rotate faster. It is normally inserted into the ceiling unit of fan just about the fins.
How do you slow down time in shadow the hedgehog?
To slow down time, use Chaos Control in a boss battle. Normally it would speed you through the level, but in a boss battle it will slow down time and everything will get funky colored.
Do bats use their tail to help them slow down when they are flying?
yes they do
When should you use 2nd gear in an automatic?
When you want to slow down.
Why do slow up and slow down mean the same thing?
We speak a ridiculous language don't we? However slow up is not correct English. I think we use it because it is easier to say than slow down (especially when it's urgent).

Why does your car shut down or slow down as you shift gears?
Different costs, it depends what airline you use. If you use a car, it depends on what fuel you use.
