Airborne acts as loadmaster in the comics when they Joes caught CC and were airdropping him and the command centre into the Rockies. He doesn't seem to act as rigger or jumpmaster as far as I recall.
The environment specific Joes are seen operating outside their environments in the comics some times. Torpedo was part of the battle in DC at the US Mint in an early story (ludicrously in his SEAL gear, with his spear gun), Snow Job worked with Torp in the mission that saw the GI Jane sunk, manning the WHALE (ludicrously wearing his white coat, then again they were in the Atlantic, so maybe not so ludicrously!). Snow Job also went on the mission to Italy that led to CC being caught that wasn't snowy, but mountain climbing. Wet Suit went on the mission "Ambush" in Special Missions in Vietnam's jungles.
That last mission saw Tunnel Rat, Footloose, Lowlight and Leatherneck doing a LALO jump in, along with Flint, Wet Suit and Beach Head. Suggests all the Joes definitely have airborne wings to some degree. Roadblock, Gung-Ho, Ripcord and Stalker also did a freefall jump into Sierra Gordo to rescue Dr Burkhart. Scarlett jumped into the High Sierras to tell Stormy that Snake Eyes was captured in the silent Yearbook issue. Spirit freefall jumped into the same mountains with Airborne in a story where they were keeping tabs on Snakes while he was on vacation.
