Falling with grace counts as flight!

[numerobis]

In early career mode I always start with milking the science available on the pad.

In my new 1.0.5 career I had Jeb jump out and run to the crawl way for an extra EVA report. I was too lazy to walk back so I just recovered him there.

To my amazement, his jump meant that he had experienced atmospheric flight -- which is worth 1 xp. It also meant he was a vessel recovered after flight, worth science.

I repeated with the rest of the crew, so Bon, Bill and Val all have 1 xp and I've got all the science from recovering atmospheric flights, before I've even fired any engine.

It does *not* count for the achievement though; I still had to do that separately.
