Thanks for the input peeps. It's still at the feasibility stage at the moment. I don't know about the other DZ, but the Gan one would be south of the runway on Gan airfield. The airport only has a few moves a day, so there's plentyof time to get drops in. Have a look at [www.equatorvillage.com] for photos of the island and hotel, and there's some more on my website http://members.lycos.co.uk/ganisland/ Gan isn't your typical holiday island, the islands on the west side are all connected by causeways and you can cycle up to the NW corner which is about 20kms away.

Because the airline is Island Aviation and they only fly DHC-8's and Do228's.

A Maldivian friend of mine has asked me to test the water and see if anyone would be interested in skydiving packages in the Maldives. This is a serious proposal by a Maldivian airline to maximise utilisation of one of their Do228's. The DZ's would be at Gan and Hanimaadhoo. Not being a skydiver, I thought I might you guys and gals. I guess that from 12,000', the island DZ would look very small!!!!!!!!
