WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE JUMP PLANE?

Recommended Posts

I was going to include the 182 option. But, I wanted to include the airplanes that could go to 14 grand. But, if you like a 182....that's cool.


What's with you people and thinking a 182 wont make 14K
I spent 2 years jumping out of a 182 from 14K on almost every jump, 20minutes to altitude 4 or 5 on board. 3 blade prop, it's a great little plane :)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
My Life ROCKS!
How's yours doing?

Skyvans are nice but, hard to find.



They are good but suck for 4 way competition also more fuel per load. slow...Just bite the bullet and get an otter.

Where's the CASA choice????? :S[:/]:S



Why would you want a casa, you need 2 pilkots more fuel and they suck for time to altitude. They are great for CRW thats about it oh and tandems

I tried to stick with the most available aircraft in the skydiving industry. But, CASAs are awesome. When you can find one.



The farm needs an otter thats it. Ben and carey would love for you to get a caravan:D:D An otter has much more of a draw.Seriously, you have the people for an otter

where is the C-182 option?:D




I'd rather take an otter, freefall for 25 seconds, and find myself at 9,000 feet, ;):)than take a 182,,, sit IN the plane for 25 minutes,,,, and find myself at 9,000 feet.[:/]:|


Even though i am born and bred on the great cessna jump planes. 180s , 182s, 206 and even a 210, ( retractable gear)....:)
Of course those were years and years before the cessna 208 came off the assembly lines.....The 208 is a perfectly fine jumpship...
never had a chance to try a PAC750.....
my choice would be the S Otter... for comfort, size, rate of climb, ease of exit, and of course, capacity...B|;):)
