DZ is under new ownership since March 2006, so reviews written before then don't apply now.
The new owner brougt a kickass PAC 750 XL skydiving friendly aircraft that rockets to (a usually generous) altitude in about 12 minutes.
Many investments have been made in the infrastructure - SnackBar, Gear Store, New Manifest, computers, wireless internet, video room, digital photography, covered waiting area, well-stocked beer fridge, etc. More still to come.
The turd pond west of the landing area is still there - it belongs to the adjacent Valero Truck Stop, but it's not a problem unless you fly with your eyes closed.
Overall, a good place to jump has just gotten a lot better.
