1000 - 1500 feet is a typical jump. The Rangers jump from the same height as any other paratrooper does.

Do you have to complete airborne school to go to ranger school?
No, but if you're being sent to Ranger school, you'll more than likely be sent to Airborne school enroute, if you're not already jump qualified. You must be jump qualified to serve in any of the Ranger Battalions, however.
Are all army rangers airborne?
A Anyone serving in the 75th Ranger Regiment is on active jump status. As for simply being Ranger qualified, being jump qualified isn't a requirement. However, for someone to be sent to Ranger School without being sent to jump school first is rare, but not entirely unheard of. totaly absurd: To be part of the 1st,2nd or any ranger Batt you must pass airborne training You must be jump qualified no if and or buts. The only persons who have gone thru ranger trianing without being jump qualified are trainees during WWII Ive served with the 1st ranger batt,2nd ranger batt,1/509 airborne and 5 special forces.

Does army infantry jump out of planes?
Some do, some don't. Only airborne personnel jump out of aircraft - not just infantry, but also support personnel, if they are on active jump status. To be on active jump status, your unit has to be on active jump status. Such units include the 82nd Airborne Division, 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team, Long Range Surveillance Detachments (LRS-D) assigned to line divisions, the 75th Ranger Regiment, and Special Forces.
What is the Best Way to prepare for airborne school I'am confident in my abilities for BCT and ranger school but i dont know if i can take airborne school specifically the Jump itself.?
there is no prep on the books. I qualified jump school at age 17. Just being young and dumb helps. Like everything else i.e, ranger, special forces, etc...... you want it, go get it. That's all. And last, mind over matter..................

How do you get out of 82nd airborne and drop my airborne status?
Just resign your Airborne status. As a paratrooper, you are a two time volunteer. You volunteered to join the Army and you volunteered to join Airborne. You can resign from Airborne at will, but you lose your Jump Status and all privileges that come with that status (Jump pay, wearing of the wings ...).
If you join the us army will you jump out of airplanes?
You only jump out of airplanes if you volunteer for it - that's also an easy way to spot a phony veteran, is that they'll say they were "selected" to be in the Airborne, Ranger, Special Forces, Marine Recon, or any other unit of particular status. If you don't want to be in the Airborne, just don't enlist under an Airborne contract. It's really that simple. Now, if you want to be assigned at certain duty stations, it may be a prerequisite for being in that unit. However, nobody's compelled to serve in any unit on jump status - it's entirely voluntary. A lot of personnel are what those of us who've been in units on active jump status like to refer to as "five jump chumps" or "almost Airborne" - they'll get Airborne in their contract (or during their ROTC course, for officers), do their five jumps, get their wings, and never jump again.
