Is it though? It's not free fall since air resistance is not negligible...

Sorry to disagree. If the drag is different for objects with different masses such that the terminal velocities are equal, which I think it's the case, then they fall at the same rate... and you see what you see. In this case equivalence principle just doesn't apply

They definitely are. It takes just a few seconds to reach terminal velocity.

fair enough, I'll be sure to update that with a comment
