Anyone else who has played notice a slight "jumpyness" to the gameplay? For instance, I'm flying the plane, and I'm constantly having to correct myself.

Overall, this game is becoming somewhat fun to play, makes me want to break out the N64 version and give that ago again. I miss shooting the Giant with my gyrocopter.
Yeah I too am getting nostalgic for the 64 version and I also know what you mean about it "becoming fun". It starts off, frankly, dull as ditchwater. Fortunately as someone who's up to Stage 6 I can tell you that each succesive mission gets more and more fun with more things to do.

Regarding parachuting the best trick I've managed is to keep well away from the target and when you hit 200 feet, turn and start making your way towards it. Any earlier and you'll overshoot. Also try watching the demo which shows off how it can be done.

Having to correct yourself while flying is to do with the wind direction blowing you off course. I havn't noticed jumpiness but I have noticed the screen becoming grainy at times although that might just be my SNES leads going.
