How does Bond catch up to the plane in Goldeneye when it and he, on the bike, fall from the mountain? All objects regardless of weight will fall at a maximum rate of 9.8Metres/second, so just how does bond fall faster than the plane to catch it?

but to answer the question at hand:
he isn't defying gravity.
In mountain-areas where he was, there are many gales, winds, ... that are all in a different angle and pace since they "bounce off" the mountainside, making that what Bond did in GE is possible: he got in a section where either wind was blowing down or there was none while the plane was in one where the wind was blowing up, slowing it down.
not neccesarily... it might be some blow of wind later.
plus.. plane is plane. and is supposed to fly..so it might have been falling slower. while Pierce has no wings yet
he was next to the plane, though even if he's close behind it he would be in the wake, meaning he would get dropped faster. The only problem is that from being in the "next section", he would need to cross over to the section of the airplane, that's the part that's hard to do
bond has a smaller surface area, and is subject to less air resistance though the actual difference that would make is negligible until the plane reaches terminal velocity....
