Most did not. Some were sealed in their planes and only had enough fuel for their one-way trip to the US fleet. They were suicide pilots, and their only means of attack was to crash their aircraft into US ships.

How did Kamikazes train?
There is a book that you might be able to find in your local library or get on loan from another larger library. It's titled The Divine Wind. The book was writen by two Japanese officers who commanded air bases where Kamikaze fliers were stationed. It should answer all your questions. Library of Congress Number ISBN 0-553-12578-8Kamikazes were Japanese pilots who were on suicide missions. They were insructed to run their planes into ships or bases in hope to kill. The Kamikaze pilots were trained in wooden crates as there were not enough planes to train them in. Also, the Kamikaze's only needed to be in the air long enough to find a target.More intriguing is: Why did Kamakize pilots wear helmets?

The pilot of a small plane parachutes out when the engine stalls is she more likely to land on water or dry land?
Well, first off, if the engine stalls in a small airplane, the airplane can still glide, and pilots are taught to respond immediately to an engine failure by troubleshooting what might be wrong, going through a checklist, and then preparing for an emergency landing. ("Stall", by the way, refers to the wings of the airplane, not the engine... but that's a whole 'nother question.) In any case, pilots of the vast majority of small aircraft don't wear parachutes (except when doing aerobatics). The primary reason you'd want to leave an airplane in an emergency is because the airframe is damaged and the airplane is uncontrollable--which is an exceedingly, exceedingly rare occurrence, although for this reason, pilots performing aerobatics are indeed required to wear parachutes, in case they exceed the limits of the airplane's structure to the point where it's damaged and unflyable. It's pretty darn hard to do. But if she were to parachute out in this case, she'd land on whatever she happened to be over when she jumped. DCE
