Great video, itr brought memories of when I was based at CFB Trenton in the 80s and the Skyhawks jump team were looking for volunteers, they didn't have to have their Airborne wings, but be jump qualified, one of the Aero Engine Tech did skydiving ong the weekends and had over 1,500 jumps, so he put his name in and went with the Skyhawks for 6 months, it was usually a 2-year posting, when he came back we asked him and he told the para guys weren't happy with him because he had more sky diving jumps than they did and knew about sky diving than even their Senior NCOs did, so they retuned him to his unit.
Very nice shots on a beautiful day. Looks like a first class operation, safety minded. Two of the really great planes for this kind of work. Saw 2 Challengers at ZBM; one was owned by MANGO , fashion company (from Spain ?) Any air shows around here that you are aware of for this summer ?

Your vids are enjoyable...keep up the good work
Nice video
In Flight Simulator I fly the Twin Otter Parachuting Club version :)
The PAC 750 which I’ve flown in also is a great stick control aircraft for Skydiving
Mark I would love to flying the Cessna 208 out there
It wasn’t about building hours but having fun flying a great aircraft and the Caravan I was in had the Garett TPE- 332 12JR which was a beast
In 2 minutes Jumpers away!!! Jumpers Away!!!! 😀
