Not taking into account drag, I would have thought, like Graywolf, that acceleration would be the same, thus the two items would fall at the same rate.

However, in the real world, there is drag, and items will obviously fall at different speeds, and the more aerodynamically efficient ones will fall quicker. Still, weight will not be relevant. Right?

I really should stick to history and philosophy. This science stuff is too complicated.
