Actually there's more chance of entaglement with doors since you don't
send guys
off a ramp 2x2 buy in single file.

I'm guessing that the reason there are no ramp jumps on the C5 (It
doesn't give
the reason in the manual) is the minimum airspeed of the Galaxy. Like
the C141,
it's too high for a safe ramp jump , which is why the doors are equipped
with
special blast deflectors to assist in a safe and stable exit from the
aircraft.
