I saw this pop into my news feed.

So The US Military Academy bought a couple Cessna 206's for "training"
Any idea as to what sort of training that would be? Parachute jump training perhaps?
It just struck me as odd... if they were doing some sort of basic introduction to flying for future pilots wouldn't a smaller 172 or 182 sized bird make more sense?
And if Cadets were getting jump training wouldn't they go to an army Airborne school set up for that?
